Old Coleman

Hi fellas, I picked up this old Coleman
Can someone tell me what I have, not to good with model and date

 

A few more photos might be more definitive (filler cap, generator, control wheel, burners...) but I'd hazard a guess on what I can see that it's an L427 (or LQ427), but the pump knob looks like an earlier model.

A lucky find.

L427, LQ427, 2LQ

 

Looks to be an August 1925 Canadian 427. Fun little lanterns

 

Some more pictures to help out ID

 

Some US variants. These should have mica chimneys with sliding lighting doors.

 

You’ve got a keeper there, Darryl.

Cheers

Tony

 

Hi Daryl From What I can see yes it’s a 427 and as you can see it comes in a few variations of pump tops
I don’t believe it’s Canadian as the founts are normally stamped “Made in Canada” and the baffle plates are imprinted as well . It has a Canadian vent which I suspect was mixed up at one stage in its life
Canadian Quicklites rarely turn up here in Aus as I don’t think they started exports here till the 30s from memory ( could be a bit out) and Canadian L427s are not very common at all even in Canada

 

@Darryl Durdin is there any stamping on the baffle plate below the burner?

@Akeepsake only double digit year stamp Coleman's in the 20's I'm aware of were built in Canada... If it's an export model, maybe it was stamped differently.
