Brass Era light

Post by Michael Peternell » Sun Oct 30, 2022 2:26 pm

I came across this light and would appreciate any insight as to what it was originally used on.
Thanks in advance!

Name on it says Velie. So it’s off a Velie.

This link gives history of Velie. And has links to parts wanted if that lamp needs a new owner.

This is a 1910 Velie with Rushmore lamps. I think the lamp forks may be the same.
FWIW

I'd want to see if any other Velie parts could be found wherever that headlight turned up.
