1893 Columbian Expositon Light Post

This was obscured by years of tree and shrub growth, finally exposed during the ongoing work to restore Jackson Park.

 

A base for another of these posts is nearby.

 

It's unclear if the extended arm is original or was retrofitted (the lamp fixture itself is obviously newer), as I've only seen photos of these posts with a large lantern-type fixture on the top.
