Had these photos saved of this unusual camp oven since it went through Ebay a while back. Thought they probably should be here for future referance.

I think they are from the UK I've seen them listed before over there.

That one was listed in Western Australia from memory.
Maybe i should have bid on it...... postage would be a killer from England

LK sent me the eBay number of an Albatross for sale in Ireland a couple of months, it was very rough and from memory the starting price was $100 then add postage....
Same seller had an old Falkirk too, same deal.

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd

I just picked up an Albatross pot on EBay here, on the other end of the earth. If you click on "See Original Listing", you can see all the pictures.

These auction pics are not great, but it does look to be in fine shape, if it arrives intact, I'll season it up and get some better pics. It's not really an oven, so feel free to move this post to a different board if you like Derek.
