1976 Coleman Model 206 Kerosene Lantern
This is a December of 1976 Coleman model 206 kerosene lantern. The 206 is a unique lantern in that it was preheated using kerosene from the fount instead of using a bottle of alcohol to fill the preheater cup. Attached to the base rest is a squeeze bulb that you pulled out a small amount of kerosene from the fount and squirted it into the preheater cup which has a wick and screen to hold the flame that preheated the generator. ...The 206 was made strictly for export, that is why you don’t see these lanterns often here in the US as they had to be brought back or were taken from the factory. This lantern is in the same condition as I obtained it except, I replaced the tube that inserts into the squeeze bulb. It was reproduced using pictures from original 206 lanterns. These lanterns are very, very tough to find, so here’s a chance to add it to your collection.
