Extremely Rare ASA 682 Automatic Storm Lantern – NOS in Original Case with Spare Glass & Manual (c.1960)
Sold
Rare ASA 682 Automatic hurricane lantern, New Old Stock (NOS) in its original case, with two spare glasses and the original instruction manual. The tank interior is still pristine, confirming it's never been used. Only fitted with a wick, not lit, for preservation.
Unlike the more common Feuerhand or Rhewum cases, an ASA 682 in its original box is rare. Its automatic mechanism is the standout feature: tilting the carrying handle backward lifts the chimney and swings the glass open — fully functional.
