Antique Clayton & Lambert Blow Torch C&L Shorty ~ All Brass Handle ~ Steam Punk

Description

☼ ANTIQUE BLOW TORCH
☼
DESCRIPTION:
• Age uncertain - Approx 1910 we guess based on research.
• Brass Looks Great - patina & design show the 100 yr + age.
•
SOLID BRASS HANDLE
is rare - can't find a single other example online. I feel this may have been an EARLIER model, with wooden handles introduced later to cut the original sale price.
• Nice silver color (nickel steel?) knob for controlling the flame - steam punk.
• 7½" Tall .... 4½" Dia at the base.
• Weighs 2 pounds 5 ounces -- shipping weight will be 4 pounds.
CONDITION:
FOR DISPLAY ONLY
.
Looks fab as a display item.
Outside is mostly clean, very little soil, patina mostly even, brass parts have slightly different color depending on their exact alloy, not all identical. See photos.
The pump function is free moving, but feels like whatever diaphram used to produce pressure is not making contact with pump shaft walls.
The flame assembly is attached to the tank with a solder joint that is not tight, it's mostly tight, but not entirely.

• Please DO NOT include "FREE SHIPPING" or any alteration in the shipping costs when using "MAKE AN OFFER" - the logistics are difficult due to eBay policy.

• Check our other auctions to see if combining shipping can work to save you  $$$.

Most items are in our STURBRIDGE, MA Location, but we can also do Boston (Metro West and the North Shore especially), Worcester, Hartford, New Haven, and less often, Manhattan. The Pickup or Delivery options are often quite reasonably priced - occasionally FREE on certain items.
• We are happy to accept your check [Personal / Business / Bank] - But ONLY by special prior arrangement ...or... on hand delivery - this is forced on us by eBay security policy. Glad to discuss this angle when setting up in person delivery.

• Ask questions, if any, before you bid. Uncertainty is the enemy.
• Returns: we do 'em, partly just cause the other guys wont!  14 days $$$ back as long as we get the item back in original (or better) condition. Most times you have to pay shipping, but sometimes I'm willing to pay for some or all of it - ask ahead of time if it's not spelled out on the individual auction. If it's my error [unlikely but possible] I'll cover some of that cost for sure !!
