Coleman treasures

Awesome

I plan to try mine out one of these days.

Out of curiosity, I read through this whole thread this morning and remembered something my Dad gave me this summer while we were thinning out his storage shed:





Looks like a July 1965 200A that he used as a flounder-gigging light on Galveston Bay when we lived in Lake Jackson. Considering it's long exposure to salt water, it looks to be in good shape.

Thanks, guys. Like I need another hobby - I need to get into it and see what it needs.

Great looking 200a with a reflector!

Heck Yah!!!!



Simplest recipe of all time. Ideal for camping.

BTW, it may seem random, but I am at home with a sinus infection and wanted to try this oven again.

I did notice that the internal temp is 75 degrees more than the external dial; which explains the burned bottom on the first attempt.

Here's a 200a and a 220f I got from my wife's grandfather. I think they cleaned up nicely and they both work great!

They cleaned up nicely.

I want one of those red ones someday.

This one's stamped '59. I wish I had a dollar for every coon that it's chased.

Great looking lanterns. Fire them up

Timm, let me know when your coming in from the boondocks. I've got that tool in the truck for ya.

Also, my cousin is going to gather up all his old Coleman stuff and give it all to me. I don't know what he has, but it should at least be from the 1960's.

Next week I will be down that way

Anybody have a couple of 288's they want to sell?

I am using two 220s right now at the Texas shoot out a 1975 & 1978.
Love my old lanterns.
