Quirks "Victory'' table lamp with Primus repo top hat.

Marko, with your Quirks tanks side by side, how identical are they ??
I ask because we had a few together to compare at one of the lampers gatherings and they were not that identical.

 

That reproduction works well.

Also, @Marko57, do you have any Quirks Victory burners like that, that don’t have the top of the burner casting threaded to fit the cap over the glass?

Cheers

Tony

 

A good find!

 

@Tony Press

Hello Tony, I have 4 lamps and they all have the threaded hole.

 

@Anthony

They are Wizard tanks.

 

My Lamp on this post has an original Quirks globe.

 

@Marko57

One of my Quirk’s does not have the threaded hole — just the brass casting.

@Tony Press

That's odd, Is it the one you got off Albert with the large white shade ??????

 

Yes, @Marko57, it is the one from Albert. (Here).

Tony

 

Very nice lamp and the globe as well.

 

Hello @Anthony
I don't know why I said Wizard tanks sorry.

 

Hello @Anthony
I rounded up my Quirks lamps and heater and YES some of the tanks are different.
Plus the control knobs are different colours.
Also the external pump housings are different on some.
Here are some pic's for you.
Marko.

 

Brilliant.
Any signs of the tanks being pressed rather than spun ??

Any possible conclusions ??
Ignore what you 'know', that will just get in the way, what do you think ??

 

@Anthony

I will go with being pressed as a couple of them do have scratch marks from being pressed into a dirty/rough die.
