I bought this today without knowing a thing about it, only that i have never seen one before. When i saw it in this old gentlemen's 50 plus year collection, all i could think was, WOW! I bought a lot of other stuff that wow'ed me also today. Got home and looked it up only to find one, without much information. Have you Whiz's guy's ever? Thanks, Owen

That is cool, never seen one. It looks like it is set in a wooden dovetailed box, very old, probably 1920's or earlier. How big is it?

It says good for 10 to 20 miles, so one gallon sounds right.
