Yes I missed the obvious one but the others photos seemed odd without them but then OH&S was something that developed often after the horse had...
Nice find Darryl. Quite unusual.
Wow. Nice history. Did they not have welding goggles?
Welcome and good to hear your lanterns are getting used regularly.
Nice to see this @Marko57. This means that between Serial Nbr 17797 and 27908 Cosyglo changed to recommending BP Coralite from their previous...
I've only seen what @Tony Press has located in that Cosyglo ad that mentioned mantles called Stormaster. I wish I did know more about them and...
