[VAC] 1950's Veritas gas lamps made in England
My 1956 22' Flying Cloud has two interior propane gas lamps made in
England by Veritas. They are missing parts which I want to replace,
especially a slightly damaged ceramic "flue" with the number "5028" and
"British" cast into it. It appears the mantel mounts on this ceramic flue,
which screws onto a brass coupler that screws into the lamp base. A quick
Web search turned up nothing on Veritas gas lamps or gas lights.
Does anyone have any information on the Veritas company that made these
propane gas lights? Any leads on original or replacement parts? Is Veritas
still in business in England? Any and all leads or information graciously
appreciated. Thanks!
