Doll et Cie, spirit fired steam 'Locomobile' portable engine, Cat. Ref 502/5, we believe c.1920; comprising of single fixed cylinder with boiler mounted double flywheel with some original hand lining, with weighted safety valve, sight glass whistle and boiler draincocks. Doll transfer on cylinder obscure, but has lubricator on valved steam supply. Chain drive to rear wheel, fold down chimney with chain and spark arrestor. Some models had a crank for winding the chimney up and down but this is not the case for this model. The water feed pump is missing and 2 screws indicate where it would have been on the boiler. A gallery is on each side of the boiler with a ladder on one side as expected. A double wick burner is present, this has been over painted, probably a replacement. The fire box door is present with handle. Wear commensurate with age.
