And here is the her big brother....

The twin cylinder Stuart Turner Swan.

Also acquired as new about 20 years ago.
Factory built by Stuart Turner at Henley on Thames.

A collector friend, Tim Mason found it in the Cabin Fever consignment tables and came to find me immediately to say he had found something I needed. He was absolutely right so I paid, brought it back to my table where the consignor, Holly Hollerith, saw it and introduced himself to me. He and I have been great friends in steam ever since and we talk regularly.
He acquired it in the early 1990s from a Sotheby's auction.

I cleaned up, kept it well oiled and run on air at home, at Cabin Fever, and the NAMES show and a few others.

Enjoy!

Gil
