Prest-O-Lite

In the past there have been posts about the origin of the B-tank. I was at an auto show today and saw a 1911 Flanders. I wish I'd had a camera. Mounted horizontaly on the running board was the coolist B-tank I've ever seen. It had the offset valve like they all used to. It was made out of brass and chrome plated. Some how they used some kind of resist so that when they plated it the name in large letters in a spiral around the tank said PREST-O-LITE in brass. In the recess in the "bottom" of the tank was a chrome gauge that said prest-o-lite on it. The brass mounting bands had prest-o-lite stamped in them. The whole works was original and unrestored.
