HO GAS LAMPS - Old Time

Does anyone know of any good looking HO gas lamps on the market? I can only find cheesy-looking ones by Life-Like, Brawa, etc… I’m modeling turn of the century, and am having no luck finding foreground quality gas lamps. Please help! Thanks.

Take a look at this page from Walther’s:

Some of these look fairly good. I can remember seeing a few when I lived in historic areas in several countries.

This guy has some nice lights at pretty good prices. Watch the sizes because they are not exact HO scale. He lists the size in mm. though.
Woodland Scenics sells some real nice gas lights but they are non working.

Edit-Look under Model Lamps on that E-bay link.

I have bought a few items off this site as well, gas lamps and trees, especially lots of trees.
