Description: Turner No. 318A Mechanics Blow TorchExtremely Uncommon, Reconditioned Blow TorchCondition is "Used". Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.Thanks to my dear-old-dad, I'm continuing to learn more about blowtorches than I ever thought possible. LOL! This torch has been cleaned and painted and is ready to highlight your humble abode! This blowtorch is a great piece of well-preserved Americana that would be a great addition to anyone's household. I would keep it in mine, but I still have well over 100!The only thing of note for this torch is that the tank appears to be steel rather than bronze. Additionally, this torch has a wind shield. These torches were made narrow so they could be used in confined spaces, such as an automobile. This comes straight from my dad's collection and is another "David E. Kolb" masterpiece! Carefully researched and restored to how this might have come out of the box! This is a beautifully reconditioned 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 the majority of his collection to those who would appreciate them most.This torch stands 8" tall and 8" wide from nozzle to handle. All original parts. 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.
