Which Coleman model is this?

Just brought this one home today and can’t see a model number on it. Year 1937, can’t see the month. Could it be a 427K Mountie?

 

Hello Jean, some photos would help us to assist you.

 

Ha ha Jeff, old age strikes again!

 

On that single photo I would say Coleman 427. It is USA, I assume.

I agree that it's a 427 but the vent looks more Canadian because of the "seafoam" color. The top portion of the vent looks pointier, which is typical on Canadian quicklites.

I too thought the vent looked Canadian; and @Jean J did say “Mountie”.

From distant memory of my pair of Mounties, there are two dimples on the air intake (?) which fix an air restrictor in place.

I had no clue what my lanterns were until Neil identified them by the dimples...

Thanks all. Sorry, should have said Made in Canada @Tony Press and @rr_res and I have found a dimple on the air intake tube. Assume the second is hidden. Not a very common lamp then? I’ll put a pic in the gallery before I try to clean it up a bit.

 

They are very good lamps, Jean.
