Ehrich & Graetz lamp Matador burner service & polish

My recently acquired Ehrich & Graetz of Berlin "Matador" Brenner (burner in German) introduced in mid1890's. Very efficient design. You get a very large and bright flame with almost zero smoke and little to no kerosene fumes. The Matador burners use a 3" wide flat wick but shape it into a cylinder as it feeds into the burner. The flat wick is shaped into a compact circular shape which gives a large area for the flame in effect almost tripling the size of the flame. These are side draft burners. The feed air enters through the side grills and rises up through the burner to mix with the kerosene fumes. The mushroom shaped flame spreader directs a jet of air to feed the flame while the hat shape on top spreads the flame outwards towards the chimney. I have checked the burner out and now will polish the brass to look like new.
