Looking for a set of original headlight lenses for my 1913 with JNO Brown 16 lamps. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,
I broke the lens out of one of my 1914 Touring and could not find a replacement. I took the brass ring with the broken glass off of the headlight and went to a local glass shop. It only took him a few minutes to cut a new lens for me. He charged me $12 including tax out the door. He even put the glass back in the brass ring from the headlight for me to make sure it fit correctly.

That will work fine as long as you do not light a gas burner inside.

I'm guessing that original lenses in acetylene headlamps were made of a glass that would withstand high temps?
