Thackera Sons and Company was a company that worked in Philadelphia in the 1880s. We have a link in our Details section to the 1970s publication of "Gas Lighting in America" in which photo plates of fixtures manufactured by Thackers Sons and Co. are shown. The type of castings in an Aesthetic square semi-geometric form with stylized foliate detail were often featured in the fixtures. Very often there is a pottery center cylinder often with Dragonfly.
