    This arrived the other day via a contact on another forum who sold it to me for a very reasonable sum. Its missing the mica globe but otherwise appears complete ? Great condition, some surface rust on the main heat shield and it needs a little re-shaping. The reflector should polish up nicely too. I was surprised these smaller tanks have a pressure indicator, I hadn't noticed that before. Regards David

    Nice one David, that will clean up nicely. There have been a few posts about replacement globes for these on the forum. Try searching under TL15 and TL10 globes. Steve.

    Hi Steve, Dont think it will need much to bring it back to life. Am not going to paint the tank but might tidy up the outer heat shield as it is slightly deformed and a bit rusty, and give the reflector a polish up.
    Will post more photos when things progress.
    Cheers David

    Sounds like a good plan to me. Look forward to seeing the lady lit up when she's suitably re-dressed. Steve.

    The burner on this should have a small dia brass rod to engage in slot of globe frame to prevent it swaying (see previous AL15
