After seeing toracat's post for his vintage travel iron I thought that I would post mine.
Found this at a garage sale last summer, didn't need it but thought it interesting.
It is a Hylite travel iron, it has a removable cord, & folding handle

Thanks for the love toracat, I thought you would appreciate this being the well traveled man that you are.

Thanks for stopping by to show this some love tony, Phil, lundy & petey.
Nice find bro ! And still in box :-) I guess they never used it or never traveled
Thanks for showing this some love Ted.
Thanks for the love on this Geno, when I walked into that garage sale I certainly wasn't looking for an iron. I just couldn't resist it's cool factor, a lot of thought went into the design & packaging of this gem.
Hi Sis, thanks for the love on this one. I think it did see some use, as there is lots of tape holding the box together.
Thanks for the comment Phil.
This is one of those products that started as a concept, then passed on to an industrial designer to render a design on paper that would appeal to the consumer. Then the engineers had to figure out a way to build it.
And yes it does look like a stapler.
sounds like me -- have several but this particular one -- mine is a singer -- but they work great for when wants to transfer embroidery patterns since you need a dry iron
Thanks for the love epson, maybe I should use this one when applying iron on edging in my wood working projects. My wife doesn't like it when I use her good one & get glue on it :-)
Thanks for the love on this one, Hunter, gargoyle, neil & Sean.
