Pick up another 275 lantern with the carrying case yesterday. Came with a funnel that was in it's holder on the inside, and there was the instruction sheet, a pack of mantels and a little screwdriver in the parts holder under the lantern. Lantern was equipped with a flint igniter, but was missing the globe. Paid a little more for it ($15.00) but it did come with the carrying case

Lantern and case are both dated 3-78

Nice! I don't have any brown lanterns, or yellow cases. Good score!

Picked up two off brand lanterns today.

I pass an any Propane fueled lanterns, unless it's unique or an odd ball. I never seen this one before, so I grabbed it. It's a Burns-O-Matic single mantle, but it is sporting a Coleman globe.

Also scored a Thermos "burns any fuel" model no. 8326, dual mantle lantern.

The Burns-O-Matic was $6.00
The Thermos cost $13.00

I'm more into collecting the old Petromax Paraffin lanterns ... I just love how they scare the crap out of other Campers when I light off the pre-heater

I like the old Thermos lanterns despite the leaky pumps.

Now I check pressure, if it leaks, don’t lighty.

Picked up three more Coleman 2-mantle lanterns.

From right to left

220F dated 8-69
220E dated 1-58
228E dated 1-56

Also came with six new mantels still in the original Sears box/packaging.

The 220F was complete and cost $7.00, the other two are missing the globes and were five bucks for the pair.
