    EVEREADY 580 with Rapid starter. Estimated 1950's but not exactly sure. Scored with a bunch of other lanterns from secondhand shop that was closing down. Mint condition on the most part. Build quality seems very good, EVEREADY stamped on generator and jet is nice as is marking on pressure gauge. I particularly like the meths tin. Engraving is high quality. A little clean out and it lit up great.

    Made in Hong Kong. 500 CP I would love to find out more about it. Unfortunately does not have original globe.....unless for some strange reason they used Coleman.

    It's no Aida but it's pretty bloody good. One of my favourites in my collection.

    Sweet! I like that the pressure gauge is in PSI and not BAR. I'm just say'n...
