Hey all! New to the forum. My name is Mick. I recently purchased a 1968 Blazon 15' travel trailer. I am curious to learn as much as I can about this trailer and the company who manufactured it, but I have come up very shorthanded in my search for information. I'd like to know if anyone here has a Blazon, or knows where I could find more history about the company and details about my particular camper. An old sales brochure or owners manual would be AMAZING, but I'd settle for anything. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the welcome everyone! I will definitely check out the resources mentioned in your responses, as well as upload some pictures for everyone to get a better idea. I have found plenty of images through searching "Blazon", however I am hoping to find some more technical documents-- owner's manuals, etc. Currently, there are several listings on ebay regarding Blazon trailers: 1 sales brochure and a few reproductions of ads from magazines. None of them provide much, if any, technical information. Hopefully someone will be able to provide some documentation from their own personal collection, or perhaps a link to information somewhere on the web. Thanks again,everyone!

Most vintage trailers did not have manuals.The appliances came with instructions and sometimes parts breakdowns but the information was limited. There often was axle info as well. We have many threads here on how to operate the systems in a vintage trailer, such as compression water systems, 12 volt water sytems, operating stoves and ovens, how to light and troubleshoot your heater, etc.
Peruse our systems sections for more.
