Hard for me to tell the difference in color on this one.  Either way I like it and will be a cooker...

Limey. First example of a lime I've seen with small vent tabs on the bowl. Hmmmmm...


Very nice!

Very nice! Straiten out that triangle and put the legs on right and you'll have a damn fine Limey

Nice catch Craig. It appears to be an older lime or maybe they just used old stock vents on it. Nice lime Harris!

Got it from the original owner who is downsizing.  They said they bought it in 1972.  They are actually going to dig out pictures for me of cooking on it in the 1970's..

This is a very cool yet confusing kettle. That last picture it almost looks more avocado than lime minus the two tone. Lighting playing tricks with my eyes. I'm still thinking lime though..  ;)
 
I have a request. Can you (for clarification & more importantly for our perving pleasure) pose it in a photo with to your '69 cado?  :D
