Jeremy, L@@k What I Got

Postby halfdome, Danny » Sun Jun 13, 2010 11:27 pm

Hey Jeremy... I bought this one off Tim M. (EBay) a guy you know in SeaTac.
Talked to him tonight.
Now I have two 202's, one for Jane's harp and one for me at the table or wherever.
He went through this one so all I have to do is replace the Coleman sticker if I choose.
He invited me to some gas appliance convention at the United Methodist Church of Des Moines, 22225 9Th Ave. So. 98198, the 24-26 of June but I won't be going.
Small world ;) Danny

Nice Danny! :thumbsup: I was watching that one but it went outside my budget. Glad to see it got a good home. I got a 242C from him last week, runs like a Swiss watch.

That looks great! :thumbsup:

Besides the nickel (or chrome) fount and green vent, how do these 202s differ from 200As mechanically?

That is one beautiful lantern. Srsly.

*sigh*


One pair of those and a 443 is on my list.

:thinking:

The 202 has a stainless steel collar, frame & bail handle.

Thanks guys. I got this one at a reasonable price compared to what I've seen them going for lately.
The other thing I like about the 202 is it fits perfectly in one of these cases that are still available.

Thanks, Jeremy.

SS frame, too? Wow... that's pretty nice.

It also looks like a stainless vent nut?

Was this one of the lanterns that was sold as a "Professional"?

:thinking:


Jeeze, I need to get over to the Coleman forum, I guess... but I won't have much time to do that until after IRG.

I'm trying to get my teardrop built! At least a chassis complete so we'll have something to drag our stuff up there with.

:R

Hey Danny, I have one of those cases... it's the one that my boring propane two-mantle was sold with.

:D

It came in the mail today :) .
Don't worry, it's nice, but has some rub marks from the bale.
I wish I looked half that good after 50+ years. :lol: Danny
