Tilley TL 120A November 1972

Here's my new to me TL120A. Has near as I can tell if it may have never been lit.
Didn't take much to clean the dust off the lamp, not sure how I'm going to tackle the shade.

 

Nice example, Dean.

All I would do with the shade is carefully brush dust off with a very soft paintbrush.

Did you find it in the USA?

It cleaned up well!

 

Thanks Tony, I'll give that a try.
Yes, came off ebay. Story is it came from a widow whose husband worked in India and Australia and used it while working in those countries. If you ask me this lamp has never been fired.

 

Thanks, Dean.

It certainly looks unused to me (but you’re in the best position to judge), so it must have accompanied the owner on her moves across the globe.

Cheers

Tony

 

Wow that's a top find, and in excellent condition.
Congratulations mate.
