Rare 1967 Canadian Coleman Model 237 "Empire" Kerosene Lantern
This Canadian Coleman Model 237 Empire lantern is Coleman’s largest, brightest and best built lantern. It’s rated at 500+ candlepower or the equivalent in output to 400W of incandescent lighting when used with the correct mantle and fuel mixture. These lanterns were beautifully crafted with heavy brass parts including fount and frame with a polished nickel coating.
This 11/67 version is a Kerosene model, though it...’s capable of burning Coleman Fuel. I’ve read that a combination of both will achieve the brightest glow (something I never tried). Kerosene puts off less CO emissions than Coleman fuel, and the 237's burn very hot for good complete combustion.
I would rate the condition of this lantern as a “Daily Driver”. It’s not a show car, but works as intended. I have lanterns I display and ones I take camping. This lantern is a camper.
