Love this piece, thank you for sharing it with us! That boiler sure is neat, and the seam is riveted quite crudely compared to the endcap rivets (understandable since Tom Sr. had a tool for those)
Neat that Gil's ad also shows the slanted gauge and drain cock, many times toy steam ads aren't an exact match, but these look more like actual pictures.
Wise choice to not over-restore this one...
" ad also shows the slanted gauge and drain cock" good eye Nick, it also looks as if the rivets on the bottom are actually peened over & not merely soldered in place.
