I guess I didn't know they even had kersone model like yours. Only ever had them for users so Ive only seen white gas models. Now when I go to auctions or yard sales. I be watching for that style just so can say seen one. lol. Mac Mac, this one was believe it or not made in Canada. I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I do think it smart to have a kero and a duel fuel lantern. Why not cover the bases. I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I cleaned it up and got it working again to give to my new grand niece as a night light. I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that.

I truly have a passion for lanterns and I love when others post stuff about their passions like Finster's woodworking, Keith's huge press, Scuba's adventures and so on. It's a lot of fun.
