Received these photos by email today in an effort to identify this camp oven. The guy picked it up at a garage sale.
It has Furphy on the lid as well as 14 stamped into it although thats not visible on the photo. On the base of the oven are the marks of the Kangaroo Oven Co that Furphy bought.
Couple of interesting things are the shape of the legs and the fact that the lid sits over the top. You can see where it is cut out to fit over the bail hooks.
The guy rang Furphy and was told it sounds like a model that they made 30 to 40 years ago. I also recall a while back being told by Furphy that when they bought Kangaroo they also got their camp oven molds and did make a few of them.
Regardless it's an interesting looking 14" oven.
Any thoughts
