Hi guys,
I found two old Tilley storm lanterns in the shed this weekend. I paid a fair bit for them a while back with the idea of restoring them. I think i'll keep one...mainly as i'm bit of a nostalgic hoarder.
The glass is original and intact. The plunger shows resistance and therefore seals seem ok? The mantle will need replacing though. A few very minor chips on paintwork. I assume it would work once some loving care has been given.
The one pictured is available to somebody for trade. I'm not after anything in particular in this 'price range' so offer away...
All the best
Ben
