A burning gas lamp in the basement floor of a cloth store
In the past, there were devices called picnics that were fueled by gas and used for cooking, etc. You could put a fireproof net on it and set it on fire to create light. At a time when governments are struggling with the purchase and sale of electricity, I had the opportunity to see this device up close!
