Coleman Keepers Campfire come on in!

[TRP]

Ya know what. I have been on e bay most of the day and I think there are a few folks out in the world collecting Coleman stuff other than us. Why do they want to mess this up for us. We love the stuff and they are just stacking it up someplace like a bunch of horders. No matter what I bid on there is someone who wants to pay more. I just dont understand.

Sorry, Kirk. I usually just want to pay more ONLY if I'm bidding against you.

Howdy all, I know a really long time since I posted in here but had to tell you about what I ran across!! Goodwill online!! For some reason up in Hillsboro OR a Coleman enthusiast must have kicked the bucket because there is a lot of Coleman lanterns and stoves on there all from that location. Stove wise nothing really old but they do have 3-4 200a and one of them has an original metal case. There is also a Quiklite with the full kit. For me its not worth it because shipping even on a 502 that I might get for $6 will cost another $21 in shipping and $2 handling fee! But for you West coasters might be worth it to take a look.

Good luck Coleman combing!

Good tip Cliff. the 200A and red box is at $19 right now with 8hrs left in the auction. That number is going to go up now, thats for sure.

[CliffinGA]

just don't tell your wife I tipped you off to it!! My problem is after I bid on one and when I still have to pay $24 in shipping! I also like there cast iron, lots of wagner and griswolds.

Nothing here, move along.

I still like legos I always liked them.

Well I got another coleman convert last night. We fired up some lanterns and before it was all over he ordered a red globe from Cigar Mike! The dude is doomed. He left my house with a 288 and hunting for more.

So this whole Gang thing has been fun and we have lots of readers. I have been thinking alot about it since Slim Shady came on the scene. We need to take the 200As to the next level. This thread was actually started on the idea that we needed colors to show off at campouts and fleamarkets.

So I am going to pull the trigger on some t-shirts. Nice ones. This way prospects will have something to look forward to ------ true 200A colors! Only given out to the bravest and dedicated . The 200As will now rise as a glorious LC (Lantern Club).

Here we go. What color shirt will it be?
What should the art look like?
Front and Back?
Sizes?

I am thinking Black shirt with red logos and writing. I think that would be very cool.

[campmaster-k]

I think it should include a tag that says "TnTTT original"

Rainjer had some really nice graphics for t shirts and lantern decals but some one was taking his work and selling them so he took is web site down.

Good Idea. Maybe Doug can get hold of him. I dont see Jeremy posting on here much.

I still like legos I always liked them.

Way back when. in 1968 when I went to the University to live in the dorm I took a little tub of legos with me. Everyone laughed but by the end of the school year everyone in that dorm was in my room at least once playing with my legos

[CliffinGA]

Kirk I think front logo should be a Red 200a with amber globe and club initials in white on bottom and no Coleman banner at all, and on the back almost a Mil Spec with the sunshine rays going out and the Club name across the top and below the lantern the Tnttt Original on a scroll banner. Just my 2 cents though!
