.very nice Pop.
Did you get the alcohol primer can with it? You can see it on the front of this one.
If not, I think my buddy Eddie has an extra one, I'll try and score it from him for ya.
Marv, I'll have to take a look next time I'm up at my storage unit, might have enough parts to make ya a alcohol can. I made mine and honestly used it for wayyy more than just pre heat cups...handy little bugger!
I suspect that somebody that puts gasoline in a kero piece doesn't even know there IS an alcohol can.
I just pull off the globe to fill the cup on my only other kero lantern, a converted 200A (thanks to Sean, now in Illinois, for that one).
From your photo I could certainly make one if I felt the need to have one.
Now, to climb up into the bed of my truck for the kero, and then to tie and burn one.

I'll get a better pic for you of the can. The "fill" is bent so you don't have to take the glass off, you feed it through the vent hole, loosen the cap, fill the cup, tighten the cap, and pull it back out.
works like a charm.
Pretty sure Eddie has a spare. I'll tell him you are a hard head like me, he'll give it up!
Not the biggest score, but today I picked up two un-opened, Coleman 1 gallon fuel cans. Both are identical cans, but one was sold from Meijers and the other from Kmart. Original price tag says $3.04. I got the pair for a buck.
Picked up another lantern today. Was a type I've never seen before. The globe is not the usual Pyrex glass, but it's a type of clear film, with a sliding metal door to light the mantle and adjust the fuel valve. No markings or date on it, other than the collar has perforated writing saying Coleman Quick lite.
It's in pretty nice shape yet, and complete. The paint is scraped wore on the tank down to the metal, but the bare metal showing never rusted. Don't know if the aluminum shade is original to the lantern, or a later bought Coleman option added, or a previous owner modification.
It cost me a $5.00 bill
(I tried to do a panoramic, while spinning the lantern, to capture the collar writing. Didn't turn out 100%)
