7 lanterns and 4 stoves at the local flea market today...I bought none....mostly stuff after '65. There was a yellow clamshell with a 228 in it....20$. I don't need more stuff....

You should have bought the clam shell..... It is worth more than 20 by it self.

I cleaned up a couple of 200As this evening. I'm beginning to really like these little lanterns.

I don't need more stuff either..in fact I need to sell about half my stuff. But I would have bought the clamshell from you. Maybe even the lantern. But you could have donated the lantern if I paid you for the clamshell.

I am looking for a 5/65 lantern. So if you see one, let me know! :thumbsup:

Well I went to several garage sales this morning. I have not had any luck with them yet but it was something to do. First one was a bust. Stopped at the 2nd one and it is actually an estate sale. I found a 425 stove. no letter a real 425. case is caved in a little. not to rusty, tank and all seem to be there. Guys says "how about a buck?" So now I have a 425 and a 425C and I still have not found any Coleman or other GPAs at a garage or yard sale.

The 200s look great Lee...those are one of my favorites. What is the white sticker/decal on the side of the ne on the left?


Agree Randy, no luck at yard sales here either.....normally a couple different antique malls is where I find items.

It's an advertising sticker. My guess is that this lantern was a give away.

That's really a sweet lantern Lee.....I came home tonight, took apart the 426 that I had at the IRG and stripped it. Probably at least get it into primer tomorrow...maybe paint it on Sunday. Doug

That's really cool that it has the label from an auto supply on it...just makes it more special...

A turd for your pleasure.

This is my second 275 and it runs perfect. It was proudly displayed at the IRG light up.

Ok, ok so you got your cool camp setup. You got your fake fire.

What else do you need to be a cool camper? I am talking cutting edge here. A theme , cool tables, maybe some kind of cool lights?
