Antique Kerosene Wall Can Tin, Palestine Eretz-Israel 1940'sRARE ISRAELI HISTORICAL PIECE...Hot water was supplied by a "geyser". This was a vertical tank at the end of the bathtub fitted with a container for kerosene on the wall. When one wanted to take a shower, a small valve was opened allowing the kerosene to drip down a pipe to the burner under the water tank. ...Every few days the kerosene man would appear on the corner with his tank of kerosene mounted on two wheels and pulled by a donkey. All the neighbors would line up with their jerricans to buy kerosene for the same system was used in most houses.(Haim Gershoni, Israel: the way it was)
