    Hello all, I got my Tilley SL61 going, just an easy fettle and bang straight back into life.
    These lamps are amazing, no date stamp, so pre 1956 I presume.
    Over 70 years old and still runs, I did use another hood and burner for now, that's why the globe is dirty, also the mantle needs to be changed as well.
    Here are some photos.

    Thanks for looking.

    It's a beautiful lamp.

    How is it fixed to the wall?
