Hello everyone, Finaly i got me one of the elusive bluetops, I like this one it's special, even though it's a Petroclone, also it runs very bright ! The lantern is as found, but the fuel cap is probably of a later date. Frederik
How nice in this one? Can you share more data to us? How many cp? Year? ?.... Hey, thanks friend. Lei
Oh sorry Buddy, the year is 1953 (stamped AS) And this is a 450cp lantern. I use a 500cp Anchor mantle and the 1084S puts out alot of light, more than many of my 500 cp lanterns. Fred
That looks to have cleaned up very nicely. Congratulations. You are right about the filler cap. If you can find a scrap 1082 it is the same type.
