Glider let me know if you find some over there. I,ll do the same for you if we run across any here. There could be a chance some ol timer might have moved back from the US or or overseas and brought some back.
Never know.

Here's a link to a virtual museum of Coleman and other gas appliance manufacturers.

Here's a link to dating your Coleman equipment, nothing about production numbers however. Thanks everyone for putting up some pics of your stoves and lanterns! Doug

Hey there Classic Finn

I just took a peek. You talking about the one in Canada or the one in the USA. don't realy matter cos the shipping cost will kill them both I think. I will watch them anyway. Or is there one that I dont see? Do you have the item number for the one that you spotted?

Thanks for those.

The one in kent looks interesting. 8) The other two, green one burns paraffin not so easy to get as petrol. The other one I think is brown is a model 226 Backpaker type and I already have one. Also it is a newish type.
