    The garage sales have not been good to me so far as far as camping gear.

    I think my favorite Coleman product are the single burner stoves. What I really want to find is a single burner stove in my birth year.

      I got a my birth lantern, but it would be nice to find a 502 in my birth date.

        Coleman treasures

        I got 3 old lanterns, a stove, and a Coleman table from my wife's granddads garage just this past weekend. Here's a few pics for the brain trust...

          Had to pull the trigger on this one today.

          Never used 1973 2 mantle 228H

          Any things I should be aware before firing it up?

            I don't think I could fire that beauty up. I would keep that one as is and pick you up a garage sale user.

                Great finds !!!

                The smaller nickel font (tank) looks like a 243. They are fairly rare. The middle one looks like a 220E or 220F from the late 50s to early 60s. The big lantern could be a Quick Lite. All are in excellent condition.

                Now you need to get them burning !!

                  It would be wrong not to let that generator hum. They were made to be used.

                      Is there a good site y'all use for resto info? Would love to get them to usable (and then display them) condition, but don't want to harm value.

                          Sweet find!!!!! Love the 228F's I would put that on the shelf. I have a couple 228f's that I use and I have a nickel plated one that's not getting used.

                            Ain't no way I would fire that thing up. Display it like it is.

                            I need to dig around some. I remembered that my dad's Coleman ice chest is somewhere.
