an approximate age if possible?

Well the Mrs has told me when she bought me the Scandia the bloke she got it from sounded like he was maybe in his  70's,....and he recons that he can remember it always being used down on his folks farm when he was a little tacker.
So if that is anything to go by... your Newman "may" be "approx" 60-70 years old?
Someone else may be able to narrow it down for you but at least you now have a starting point  Smiley

At the risk of destroying its originality I would drill a hole through the tab on the lid and put a ring through that made from 6mm rod, makes it easy to lift the lid off, I've done that on a couple of similar ovens I have.
As to age I would guess post war, so maybe 70 years old or less, very much like the E&G Foundry oven I have.

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