    I thought I might show these lovely lamps together.
    I haven't got around to getting the Coleman 157, dated March of 1949, fettled as yet.
    The Coleman 159X January of 1952, was a simple fettle, and runs very well.
    These 2 lamps were found as a pair.

    Thank for looking.

    What a great looking pair @Buggerlugs. Are these shades original Coleman or Tilley ones? They look fabulous.

    @Jean I would believe they are Coleman, by the way they fit onto the lamps.
    Tilley shades have 2 round wire frames, 1 sits on the gallery and the other is the bottom ring holding the shade base.
    But you would have to ask the Coleman experts.
    Regards
    Brian.

    Thanks Brian, I’d love to get hold of even one Coleman shade some day.

    Really a nice pair of lamps. Someone in days past had a well lit house.

    They look very much like Coleman shades advertised in Australia by CJ Thomas & Son (Coleman agents).

    Cheers
