Lights and Lanterns
This category includes ship's lights, lanterns and lamps, ranging from the most common port & starboard sidelights, to masthead lights, not under command lights, and anchor lights.
Early lanterns were fueled by lamp oil and candles, and then later by kerosene. This changed when electricity and the tungsten filament light globe were invented.
