The tourist's Turkish bath stove



James Allen & Son's Tourist Turkish bath


James Allen & Son's Tourist's Turkish bath stove.

The Tourist's bath was designed for the traveller who might find the need to stay overnight at an inn where there was no Turkish bath. It had other uses as well  and could  boil water to make tea or coffee. Furthermore, in conjunction with the outside cover of the apparatus, it could be 'used for frying Bacon, Chop, Steak, or cooking Omelettes.
