    Hello All,

    First time poster. We have an old Tilley IL33 lamp which i believe to be around 1930 to 1934.

    Edit: title changed to IL34 after identification in later post

    Hello there and Welcome!

    It would be great to see some more photos of your early Tilley donut please??
    i.e. does the glass have any writing/etching at all ? Does the tank have any badges or markings?
    What does the gallery and chimney look like? :thumbup:

    regards

    pb
