Indeed crazy; I'm advised by the pro's to list on E-pay and allow for Int'l shipping to get those higher prices on pristine lanterns.

I'm sure we all have nice lanterns like that, it has to be a fluke.

I can't imagine that price!

I have a hard time paying $25 for a whole kit like that........

Well I think it is some "rare" variant. I mean, I guess that's what it is ... collectors. Still it's just a single mantle lantern when you get right down to it.

Other than the case, those are a everywhere here at the flea markets.
I have quite a few of them.

Only 1 in a case though

It was a black band 200a which was only made between 2/52 and 4/53. Agree, those small guillotine cases are hard to find.

Had a look. I have plenty of 200a. None from 52-53 with a black center. Plenty from 60's to 70's.
even have some with yellow lens
I'll keep looking.........

Here's another interesting item. Filler caps (Amish made!) modified to accept a Bicycle tire air pump. I asked the seller about these, and he helpfully replied they are designed to save time and effort. I guess so. Does this make sense?

Well it sure looks a lot like a solution in search of a problem.

I have on I use occasionally. Stop pumping at 30psi. There is little advantage to going higher. New founts should open a seam at 200psi? Older ones, who knows.

Both of them? C'mon! Still have to pump the pump, so it makes no sense to me. It's OK I'll get by...
