    @Junichi Kitano
    You have a very nice and desirable lantern. It appears to be in excellent condition.
    The collar, the frame support between the fount and the frame, appears to be a black or a dark colour. I haven’t seen a collar like this before.
    These old Coleman Quick-Lite lanterns are favourites of mine. They’re robust, simple and work very well.
    Thank you for sharing.
    Cheers
    Pete

    Hello Pete,

    Thank you.
    Japan is restricted from going out under the influence of coronavirus. Apart from work, I stay home all the time. Most of the campsites have been closed. I want to run a lantern at the campsite soon.

    The collar was painted black. There is no rust, but someone painted it later. It is a kerosene lantern, but it is very bright. I sometimes turn on the "Amish Mix" (75% kerosene and 25% Coleman fuel).

    Thank you,
    Junichi

    Hello Tom,

    Wow!! :clap::p
    You got it too. Great lantern. Is your lantern running only on kerosene as fuel? Or mixed fuel?

    Thank you,
    Junichi
