They were common all over the US but I believe many were destroyed possibly for scrap during the war...

So cool. Sean, were they lit with Acetelene, propane or natural gas or? That AGA insignia looks similar to the modern AGA/Burdox logo... Are any of the original lighting works still present?

Wow. Thank you for sharing this find with us. Looks like you could almost hook up a bottle and fire it up.
