RARE! ANTIQUE/VINTAGE GERMAN HALLOWEEN BEISTLE DIECUT LANTERN - DOUBLE-SIDED JOL

This lantern was produced in two sizes for one season (1928) by German designers working for Beistle. It is the direct ancestor for Beistle’s now-iconic 1930-1931 lantern, also produced in two sizes, and shown on page 32. I really appreciate the fine seller taking such care in describing the lantern. I wish that all eBay sellers would take such a detailed approach with their listings! It’ll be fun to see what this brings.
