Mom always told me Carettes were good for your eyes
« on: April 18, 2019, 03:42:53 pm »

This one will stay the way it is. The name badge is still evident on the wood base. Burner and accessories came with it. The boiler has been repaired at the rear, poorly(by a previous owner) but sufficient at this time.



This one will need to be reblued eventually. No burner, missing the water pump, missing the dome top whistle but the paint is in great shape.
