Profitable morning at the flea market

Coleman 238b
Optimus 100N
Ilsa N° 10
Petroman 807
Now trying to fettle them

 

Just add that these cost you 1 000 000 $
Please please

 

A good haul!

 

not so mach, the problem is how to explain it to my wife

 

Sometimes it is easier to ask for forgivness than permission
What an amazing collection

 

The Coleman aparently works fine, is posible the nozzle is bigger than it need and the bottom valve has the rubber very old, so it doesn't close. But the lamp is very nice and in good shape

 

@Leonardo Collares

Is that a ceramic “nozzle” on the Coleman?

All the lanterns you hauled are not very common.
Congratulations.

 

Hi Tony, I refer to the vaporizer nozzle, this one:

 

Ok: I see now.

Thank you.

Hi MYN, Ilsa is an Uruguayan brand, here are very common.
Most difficult to fix I think will be the Petroman

 

Only one example in the gallery Ilsa 10 Uruguay
it will nice to see your specimen in there

 

Hi Fireexit1, when I finish it I will post it. For now a god lantern an a good mate, regards

 

The Coleman lamp with the blue flame is gorgeous

 

Petroman is a Greatz product so most Petromax parts will likely fit OK.

Ilsa lanterns don't seem to have been exported even within South America so fairly common in Uruguay but rare anywhere else and my model 10 seems to be a rare escapee. They do turn up on mecadolibre but the postage can be a killer. ::Neil::

 

Thank you William.
Hi Mackburner, the exterior is very similar but inside is very different, when I start with it I will post some photos comparing the Petroman 607 (250 cp) with the Petromax 821 (250 cp), best regards.
