In all relationships there is some things that cant be agreed upon but for Allyssia and I stopping at antique shops is something we both enjoy. Around our area there is a shop that we frequent for the simple fact of its close and the owner is super nice. While Allyssia was out of town My buddy Spenser came up to visit and we went to the antique shop unsupervised! Just as some men aren't allowed in a gun shop alone sending me alone to an antique shop can be dangerous. Spenser left with quite a haul but I left with just a few stoves and a lantern because why not?
The cute little green stove is just a common Coleman 502 camp stove. I did not have one of this model so I bought it. This one also came with the original box and paperwork. The lantern is also a pretty common lantern from the 80's but it was cheap and had a neat semi frosted globe on it that can also go on other lanterns if I decide that's what I want to do.
This last stove is the coolest piece that I picked up. The stove is all brass and even tarnished looks spectacular. Once it is cleaned up it is going to be a magnificent stove. This particular brand was made in Sweden and burns kerosene instead of white gas. I lit it up once and man doesn't it burn hot.
Once I have it cleaned and polished I will drop a picture at the end of another blog but for now stay tuned and check back often.
