Thanks for dear-old-dad, I'm continuing to learn more about blowtorches than I ever thought possible. LOL. This is first Baum and Bender blowtorch I have had for sale.  This torch looks brand new and is ready to proudly display or use.  USA Americana at its finest!
Step right up to get this uncommon item!   A "David E. Kolb" original masterpiece!
Carefully researched and reconditioned to how this would have come out of the box!
This is a beautifully restored antique blow torch.  My late father passed away in early 2020. Collecting and restoring these items was his passion for as long as I can remember (I think he had over 1000 at some point)!   He spent the time to ensure everything matched the original manufacturer.    My photos do not do justice for how well this looks!!!  I am slowly but surely selling off his collection to those who would most appreciate them.
This torch is stands 11" tall and 10" wide from nozzle to handle.  All original parts. The
original handle is brass; the handle brackets are robust and unique. The base and nozzle are brass with a fine patina, engraved as shown in the photos.
This torch has been completely taken apart, cleaned and inspected.   I have not attempted to ignite it myself or leak check it, but knowing my dad's eye for detail, believe this is in good working order.
If you would like to know a little more about Dave, simply "Google him" and the words "One Man's Treasure" in the Austin Daily Herald and you'll find a humorous article about his collecting.
