Hey Doug, I think I may have a problem....

Every piece of camping gear in these picture is made by Coleman. Not pictured is my folding stove stand and my camping kitchen. (The camping kitchen is on my back deck next to the BBQ.)

Image

The Lanterns. This stove is my oldest piece, 1949-1951.
Image

The jugs and coolers.

More stoves, jugs and coolers

The good news is that I have more item on the way to me. At least 2 coolers and 3 more lanterns. All gifts from friend cleaning out their garages.

Are you planning on going camping or something?

Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.

I can say I have used everything you see at some point except the red jug (it was given to me a few month back), 2 silver stoves (long story) and 1 of the lanterns. (I just fixed it) I will need to make a box for the lantern before I take it anywhere.

Boy I thought I was bad, these are the Coleman branded cabinets that they sell at Lowes. I purposely didn't put the Coleman badges on so that it wouldn't be a big advertisement.

I probably I could have built my own but I was under a time constraint, plus all my tools were packed into a shipping container. I was renting a container to hold all the garage stuff while I worked on the floor.

I took pictures because it will never look like this again.

Nope, not anymore. It fit before I put the cabinets in, the only problem was that it was so close to the door that you couldn't get into the garage.

Jeremy, I have a rechargeable two fluorescent bulb Coleman lantern that won't take a charge anymore. It's not vintage & only about 14 years old. I'm getting ready to toss it. It's yours if you want it. :) Danny

Hey, Jeremy!

Are those green coolers (like the ones in your pics) really worth saving and passing on to someone? I've got one sitting on the trash trailer,waiting to go to the dump ... still in good solid shape (not beat up or anything), but the paint is all faded and peeling. It's yours if you want it ... or anyone else's that wants to come on by and rescue it ... :roll: ...

CHEERS!
