Greetings Fellow Members! I got lucky again! While shopping at a Local Swap Meet, of mainly Automotive stuff, I found another Tilley Radiator! $10! This one I believe, is a Tilley R1A? I'd appreciate someone confirming that for me, please? The Bottom is stamped with "963XA" and "Made in the United Kingdom". It does become addicting, this collecting Vintage Kerosene Pressure Apparatus, doesn't it? That makes two Tilley Radiators and two Kerosene Stoves(Svea 106 and Primus 54). Numerous Coleman Military and Camp Stoves, as well as many Coleman Lanterns. Here's a few pics of the new Tilley R1A.
I talked him down from $30! He said $20, I said no. He said $15, I said no. I said $8, he said $10! Done deal and we shook hands! "Nothing ventured, nothing gained!"
Stormie4me, Really? I'm still very new to this and $13 is the most I've paid for the two Tilleys I have. What do they typically go for in "as found" condition?
You got two great deals and those heaters sell for much more in the UK., even though there are more of them around.
What do they typically go for, here in the U.S. of A.? I've only seen two and luckily, was able to afford and buy them!
Several collectors over on CCF., have found Tilley heaters at flea markets etc., in the USA., and the prices were very reasonable, but they sell for much more on Ebay USA., Jeff.
