    Hi fellas, this is my HKP TYPE 3 with internal air tubes. Mabe not rare but definitely uncommon to odd,
    I got this lantern from the late Vic Tipman.I don’t know if this was the last of the line or the beginning of the line. I don’t see too many other brands of lanterns with the same setup. It’s very cool IMG_1795.jpeg IMG_1796.jpeg IMG_1797.jpeg IMG_1798.jpeg IMG_1799.jpeg IMG_1800.jpeg IMG_1801.jpeg IMG_1802.jpeg

    That's a nice one you have there Darryl. Not at all that common. That attachment of the tripod was only made in 1959 and 1960 so there can't be that many left. Seems to be in pretty good nick too.
