Plan a trip to an area of the country that had active mining 75 years ago, and find an Autolite cap lamp. Did I forget about the acid bath? You should too. nuk nuk
I see that we are of the same mind when it comes to Autolites.
Although I would add that if you are short on time (but got the money to burn) then concentrated nitric acid and a trip to e-bay will be quicker. The concentrated acid will make short work of the Premier lamp & e-bay bought lamps will leave you feeling a tad raw; but you'll be better off in the long run.
