Hiya all, Here's another of these groovy little US lanterns (after a right good seeing too), I thought I's have a play with the fount & collars finish & decided to see what they looked like chromed up ? I reckon it far surpassed my own expectations on downing the tools eventually, especially with the new decal affixed & supreme polishing, all round. I just don't fancy lighting it now, the best bet for this one now, is just a little admiration then back in the box for its own safety ! It's one of the best I've turned out so far, VM's of Brighouse did the stella chrome works, it'll be repeated no doubt, having a thing for the shinny's, ect. A few photo's, not the best of angles mind . .. . ... I find them to be without equal, and it's not just their characterful diminutive shape, they burn really bright when running properly & make a right racket for yonks; great fun all round & they're also quite a light carry. Cheers Jon.
Very nice Jon. I never see these on this side of the pond and actually I didnt see that model before either on the American ebay. Looks to be in very fine condition and well cleaned up. Claus C
