Title: Small sized torch collection-Alcohol and Gasoline (For Batz!!)
Post by: keykeeper on May 28, 2013, 08:54:46 PM

Batz wanted to see my small collection of Miniature Alcohol Blow Torches. Here you go, Sir!!

-Lenk No. 24 SelfBlo -Never used, original paperwork
-Jim Dandy no. 80-B -Never used, original paperwork including cleaning needle
-Jim Dandy no. 80-B - Original box but not so nice condition as previous one
-Couple of mystery torches, larger one on right purchased a few days ago. Never seen one of the double chamber types this large. Odd filler caps on bottom unlike others of this type I have. Small brass one is firebomb, leaks once up to pressure!!

-Turner gasoline, small size, w/preheat pan. Needs worked on, just purchased Saturday. Inset to show what remains of original sticker.

Thanks for posting the pictures Aaron,

Unused torches are just so nice, it's a real treat to find one like that.

The torch on the right in your last picture (first post) is a Dunlap 5428 from 1947, I have a very nice example of one and can post a picture if your interested.
