Hi Folks, I'm new here and recently have caught a terminal case of the camp stove bug. The condition has worstened and I'm now into pressure lamps as well. I picked up my first last week. Its a Coleman 157 complete with original paperwork. Found it for $50. It appears the globe is not original, and it does not come with a shade. I'd like to pick up a milk glass shade. I understand you can get a "bottom rim fitter" in order to make this work. Can someone explain rim fitters, or send a pic? The fount is in great shape. I'm considering painting. It looks nice enough how it is but the paint is flaking. What do you think?
Welcome aboard! Yes, the lamping bug bites deeply! Your lamp looks fine as it is, that's my opinion anyway.
