I am Superhappy this Easter as just last week I received my German Army Petromax....I have wanted one of these for an while now ....I was so pleased when I were able to exchange with a nice German collector for a Very slightly soiled Twice Burned 1964 Tilley Stormlight I had...(kind with the older burner form) Anyway this Bw 829 B arrived also in good condition....and requiring no immediate work Here is a photo of the lamp being welcomed in our livingspace ! Oh blow , my image is too big again! oh well Here is a link to a You tube clip of my two Petromaxes....828Nickel/Chrome Altena and BW 829B http://youtu.be/1ZaDUF7xeSs Also...I am so happy that in our modern Europe that we can meet someone in a lamps forum and completely from Trust make a mutually beneficient exchange....My Lamp arrived Two Days after our mutual osting day....with a couple mantles too!
This is the link to the Petromaxes....the link in my topic superhappy takes you to my Gaslamps ...apologies.... Happy Easter and may you all rise well today.... LInk PETROMAXES http://youtu.be/Arvsytldza8
Congratulations on finding the Petromax. Great lanterns IMHO especially with the top reflector on. Happy Easter. Jeff
Perhaps you could try using this website's free image optimiser, which is available via the tab near the top of the page, Jeff.
