Coleman 202 The Professional Nickel Single Mantle Gas Lantern 10/61 Vintage 1961
Item History & Price
Coleman 202 The Professional Nickel Single Mantle Gas Lantern 10/61 October 1961 Vintage. Condition is 'used'.'The Professional' model 202 is a great rare vintage lantern to add to your collection!I have not added fuel or attempted to run this but it does pump up, hold pressure, and it hisses when the valve is opened.I have added a new leather pump cup, a new fuel cap seal, and a refurbished check-valve.I have cleaned and polished the upper / burner section and its brass pieces and ens...ured all appears mechanically sound.I have lightly cleaned the fount section. There is some speckling and tarnish still on the nickel but I prefer to leave the more detailed cleaning and polishing of the nickel for the new owner, as some have their own process. It has a period-correct replacement decal.There is one chip on the edge of the vent near where the bale goes in on one side, and some light colored droplet sized spots (shown in the pics) which did not come off with soap and water; but again I will leave it to the buyer to do any more in depth cleaning.I will ship via USPS Priority Mail, and have experience shipping lanterns so will pack to ensure the red letter Pyrex globe makes it without breaking.While I do not accept returns, bid with confidence as I have 100% positive feedback after 20 years on Ebay. Good luck bidding!
