Hi all, Started to clean up a battered Coleman then tried taking a few photos but not very successful either, Only writing i can find is the blurry one in the first pick, cleaned gently on the base there is the remains of a kind of sunburst finish with gold and red/pink, Tried an tried to get things in focus but its not having it... no way of improving the brightness either Little twin burners, everything brass except for the baseplate, The top casting (manifold?) has the no. 14 cast into it.. Straight vapouriser with a little spirit cup Any help where to look for a stripdown welcome but would like help to narrow down the model no. too? Anyway here is the poor old thing Many thanks, plod Ah god now its in the wrong place, sorry Christer
Is it made in Canada? Can you see the month and year date stamp underneath the logo? Based on the pics found on Terry Marsh's reference web site (link below), if it's Canadian I think it might be a model 128. http://tgmarsh.faculty.noctrl.edu/colecalamp.htm
Hi there! Yes, it is made in Canada, forgot to say (doh)... I will have to go an look, its in the workshop.. Thank you for the reply Regards, pod
Thank you very much for your help there Mr. Newfie ! From what i can make out it says 9 and 35 ! I had noticed two very small 'dings' there but as the remains of the paint was mostly covering it i never thought that there would be a date right under my big snozzle! Many thanks ! Best wishes, pb
Hi Pod Bros, you mentioned that the lamp generator has the 'spirit cup' attached in which case this lamp is the kerosene model.
