After more searching, apparently the military preferred the 'HANDI' lantern, these were manufactured in Brisbane from the 1930's onwards. The Noemfoor pic: the lantern does appear to be a Austramax so maybe both types were used by the services. The adverts are somewhat misleading ( and potentially dangerous ) because they state either Kero or Petrol as the fuels. Reading the fine print however reveals that Shellite is the optional fuel to kero . Myself, I would say some prayers before running these things on automotive petrol
