Lighthouse Lens and Lamp Research

Photo by George Bacon.	This six panel 4th order lens on display at Montauk Point is a bit of a mystery at this point. We were unable to find the manufacturer. The only markings we found were "BF 56" on the lower part of the frame.The windup clockworks mechanism still functions.
The Montauk Point lighthouse has several other lenses on display. Be sure to visit them in person. For more information, visit www.montauklighthouse.com
