Well, I couldn't resist. After picking up the 18 MBH a few months back, I became interested in building up like kettles from this era. Just got this in the mail. Hardly looks used, but has faded to a nice hue. There is almost a sparkly look to the lid. This pic isn't that good. I will try to clean it up this weekend and take some better pics during the day. All pieces are there with little rust.
