Vintage 1948 Coleman 242 Single Mantle Camping Lantern. This was Coleman\'s original single mantle lantern, the well built predecessor to the more economical model 200A.

Refurbished by replacing fuel cap gasket with new fuel resistant rubber gasket, generator tip removed and cleaned, valve packing tightened/ adjusted, pump cup oiled, burner screen cleaned, tank rinsed with alcohol. Fired up and ran strong during 20 minute test run.

As this is a vintage 70 year old Coleman Lantern it will show signs of age, use, and wear including a few small dings on the nickel tank and a few small chips on the top of the green porcelain enamel vent. Sold as pictured, as is.

Lantern does not include globe, globe shown for demo purposes only.

Stunning piece of vintage Americana, will ship overseas for established accounts with strict no returns policy.
