The rear of each unit contains mounting hardware, including a threaded bolt; one retains a square nut while the other features a modern hexagonal replacement nut. The underside of the base on one lamp is embossed with text arranged in a circular format reading DIETZ, PAT MAY 23-99, PAT JUNE 23-, JAN 23 1900, and B & J NO 3-414.
