Black Pat. Pending 18" :: The 49'r
« on: June 21, 2016, 04:59:25 PM »
It's been far too long since I posted up a find - partially because I haven't found anything that interesting for a good couple months now. That finally changed about a week ago then I snagged this little gem off fleabay. I believe she's a 69'-70' and has never been assembled until today! Still has that new grill smell ;)

The box is a bit beat up, but it's fun to check out the old school advertising.





Someone has hand written $25 on the shipping label but I'm not sure if that was indeed the original price or not.













Here she is with big brother 8)






Hope everyone had a great Fathers Day Weekend!

Yes Black is the most common, but holy crap it looks nice on those kettles.

Holy cow! What a great find! I love the orange peel on that finish. How cool was that to get a new in the box vintage! I really like the accessories display on the side of the box. Thanks for sharing that, brother! Hope you had a great Father's Day too!

Amazing score! It still amazes me that these are found unassembled. Black has such a clean look on this series.

Super nice time capsule there, 604! After the pictures, did you rush it back inside and hermetically seal it?

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🤞
