Looks like the lid has some issues and the handle has been reattached?

The only color I have is my 2014 green OTG. I'm really holding out for a SS performer, but this might be interesting in the interim.

If your hearts not into it, let it go. That's a long drive for a redhead w/ issues. Looks like it was dropped on the handle. There's porcelain damage & dents under it. Rim rash. Looks like there might even be some crazing as well. No ash pan?
Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn't?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I've amassed a nice collection, but I'm missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞

@haeffb  I used to live in Mexico, MO!

Hopefully, you can work something out with @Red Kettle Rich

For me, the red SS Performer would be my first choice!

Unless that kettle is your birth year or that of someone significant to you, there's no way in the world that I would drive 8 hours for it.   Not worth the gas it would take or the time in my opinion.   Work a deal or Rich's SSP.

It's only about hour and a half from me maby 2hrs. I asked the guy for pics and info. He just said no but I could come look at it. Said I was about 2hrs away and just wanted a couple pics before the drive. He never got back to me.

I'm pretty liberal when it comes to treasure travel, but even if it would have been my first MBH Redhead, I'd pass on that one.

In a word? No.

Not for me either.  Patience and one more local will come
