Phoebus 635 - First light up

My first light up, well the first successful light up of the Phoebus 635 I found in Bulgaria. The Phoebus now with the Bialaddin internal organs! I wasn’t sure this lantern would ever get to this point.

 

Congratulations on the success of your surgery
it's a fine looking lantern

 

A well deserved ale

 

Certainly doing the business and looking very pretty. Although I think you might need to test it some more...

 

Immaculate. Always admire your standard for a user lantern.

 

It's a grand old lantern!

 

Thanks guys, I did enjoy this restoration, even more so in retrospect I reckon!

 

Nice looking landtern there.
Mint condition almost.

 

I was lucky, it was in pretty good condition when I found it, externally at least! Just a bit of polishing to get her to shine.
