This item is an Australian made Coleman 249 kerosene pressure lantern, made in the Sydney factory under license to Coleman Canada, and dated 11/51. The nickel plating is spotted and the tank has several small dents, the biggest easily see to the right of the filler cap. The others are much smaller and harder to see. The steel base plate had surface rust, I cleaned it off, prepped the steel then lacquered for protection, you can still see the base plate. The collar and frame are also sp...otted, lantern cleaned and new seals fitted so that it burns nicely as shown. New replacement globe, hood has rust, mainly on the top, a good working lantern that does display good.
