Northwest Coleman Collectors " Mini-Gathering Campout" In Cle Elum, Wash.

Bunch of folks who are into collecting, restoring and preserving Coleman's old Camping Products. ( Mostly Lanterns and Stoves) Coleman Sold The Compamy In 1988 and Most stuff made by them since is junk in our books. Nothing beats Coleman in the old schools with all the old nickel plated brass lanterns compared to todays porrly made " Painted Steel" Overall , there are less than 100 of these " Hard _Core Collecters" nation wide. ( Which I am One Of) Enjoy!!

Hello fellow collectors, I have a Model 1 stove and am trying to figure out what its value may be. Is there a value put on these besides just being really cool to have?
I have quite a collection of lanterns and stoves from 30s 40s 50s and 60s and just enjoy using some of them. Some are right out of the box and dont want to use them. Thanks for the nice web site to look at its very interesting and my first to look on the net for these things. Happy Camping

hello came across your website while trying to research coleman parts. i have acquired a large cache of new coleman replacement parts for older lanterns and stoves from a repair man years ago, thought your members may be interested, in the process of inventory, part envelopes have part #'s on them, but i cannot identify which stove/lantern they would apply to. if any of you are interested in buying all or some let me know via e-mail. thanks dan

I have an old coleman 426A three burner coleman stove. Our scout troop just went on a winter snow camp and we used it after it sitting for at least 15 years. It worked great.
Can someone tell me how to properly store it. I keep it in the garage but I don't know weather to keep some fuel in it or empty it after each use.
Also is there a way to tell how old it is? It has a copper color tank.
Thank you

I have a Coleman Gold 2 burner stove in moderately used condition. Should I attempt to clean it up before trying to sell it or better to sell as is?
Dennis Brower 08-Nov-2009 14:17
I am glad to see that people are interested in restoring the Coleman lanerns and stoves.
A friend of mine in Michigan got my interested in these wonderful lanterns.He asked me if I could make him a tool to reach down into the gas tank to remove the check valve. I am a retired tool and die maker with some machinery in my shop in the back yard,so I made him one. I now sell them on Ebay if anyone is interested. Search:( Coleman lanern tool) It's the ONLY one there!

Recently aquired a 1965 military specs lantern ,dismantled ,in a box. In the process of reassembly I can't figure out how the globe cage is fastened to the tank. Looked on Old town Coleman Center for Diagram but none are available. Tha 252-A shown there is WWII vintage. There is a brass u shaped piece that fits between globe cage housing and tank and for the life of me I can't fathom how it fastens up.Would appreciate a copy of the diagram for this model if any are available or any assistance on assembly srquence.
Thanks for any and all help .
