Camping Gaz Light and Stove (Acklam TS5)
Gifted
4d
- Early design Camping Gaz light (with filament) and stove, with four full cans of gas. Safety Note: - Until recently the light and stove were both stored (for many years) with a gas can still attached. There was still gas in each can which suggests the seals are working ok. Despite this, because of the age of the items, extreme caution should be exercised when connecting them to a new cylinder and igniting them.

Black & Decker Paintmate (Acklam TS5)
Gifted
70d
- Not sure if anyone will want this blast from the past (1980s), but I thought I'd offer it anyway. The Paintmate uses compressed CO2 to deliver emulsion paint to either a roller or a brush (both in the kit). It comes with 8 full Sparklets (remember them?) bulbs of gas. I think this particular kit is the mainland Europe version - the UK one also had a paint pad. Instructions for use, in English, are in the box.
