    Well, I’m holidaying in NSW and persuaded my wife to let me call in to a local junk shop.

    Very pleased I did!

    New in box, unfired 201 dated 12/81 (still looking for the 12/82 bday lantern), and a 9/62 200A in a lighter shade of burgundy.

    Also bought an Australian 249 with the wrong globe (but good for the 200A) and missing a preheater cup.

    I’m assuming it’s a 249 as the generator looks of the kero variety (I can’t remove the hood nut just yet). It has no markings on the collar, dated 12/59 - so a little different to the ones I already have.

    Quite pleased!! :lol:
