    Hi,

    this petroflam lamp was another one given to the italian public security forces in the '50. It's a 200hk, I've seen one like yours with 200hk stamped on the fount, the same exact fount of the first Swedius Astarte of my gallery post.

    Another thing I noticed is the P within a circle on the fuel cap, like on my Original Docovus 100cp.

    Nice little lamp :thumbup: Looks solid build.
    Strange they stamped the vapourizer PETROLAMP, and not the name PETROFLAM.

    Hi Claus,
    I know that exists another lamp, very similar to this one, that comes with same knob and it is marked petrolamp on the top hood. The petrolamp like this and the swedius 200 have been all used by the italian public forces. Next week I'll try to buy both the petrolamp and petroflam I found to post some photos.

    Ohh and looking better to the photo with the lamp working it seems that on the globe is possible to read astarte. :-)
