@Michel I believe Fred was in an motor accident, and is now recovering. I’m not sure if he’s back at work yet. I heard this from the Coleman Collectors Forum. Cheers Pete
Hello Michael I’ve just seen your post about mica Did you manage to contact the guy that made the shades please
I heard he would still make a number of standard-size globes for Coleman lamps but no custom-made ones. But that information may not be correct any longer as I got it a year ago or so. Erik
I will have to check but I have an email from a few months ago where he said he retired but had given me some other person's name... Just email him...I think the number is bad but got an email back.
As far as i know someone called Rob Butts is the man for mica globes now. I have not got a email for him but search for his name on facebook he has a pricelist up too Cheers pete

I wonder if he's doing them for the likes of a Thomas Kerosafe 1004 lantern which is a step beyond the normal plain globe...
