Chuck. It can't be a 220 as they have a vertical control valve on a slight slant. Marked 220 in the base maybe but it's a 228B from the 1930s and...
That last is not a Quick-Lite. It has a pricker control which makes it an Instant Lite so with the wide hood is a model 228 of some persuasion....
An impressive beast and not at all common. I don't like to use the word rare but I don't know of another. I have the shorter type but never...
Old Coleman Parts have the Optimus globe Old Coleman Parts > Globes > 200A Optimus Globe - G121 but the globe for Coleman models 200-200A-200B...
This PDF will help I guess. ::Neil::
When I was making the photometer I and the Guild were experimenting with in the photos above I discussed the detail with Mike Sharman who was an...
It's an L427 made 1924/5 to 1927. The model continued but after 1927 has a green enamel hood cap. Coleman made huge quantities of them and...
Thanks Tom. I have six B types listed and doubtless there will be more but I reckon they were only made from about 1967 to 1972 and probably never...
That's a very nice find. These are not at all common as we see far less of the B type. Does it have a date stamp in the base? ::Neil::
Nice find of a quite uncommon lamp. This will be from the 1950s and made in the UK by Falk Stadelmann & Co. Part of the Marshal Plan, they were in...
No they were always military ony and painted green. In 1945 it should be marked in the base as Coleman or AGM. ::Neil::
The MK1 eyeball is not a reliable measuring device ‘cos it’s not calibrated. If you get the 12 inch distance right then a foot candle meter will...
More likely a 1225. These are model 1200s but with the original generator and pricker set up replaced with a hex bush in the burner casting and a...
The filler incorporates a check valve and has a cycle pump fitting. Like this from my IL47 which is more or less the same for all the do-Nut...
They don't reallyhave a model No. It's a 2007 Heritage Lantern. I found this onthe web. ::Neil:: Product Description: Only 2500 of these special...
Yeah Henry and I have fettled a few of these generators. A bit more complex perhaps but with a new packing they generally restore well. Pretty...
This is for a model 10 table lamp but the burner will be the same. ::Neil:: [ATTACH]
That is basicaly what Tilley did to create the 500 series burner. A longer burner spigot and an increase to the recomended max pressure from 100...
I also could do with one.
Possibly a Brama-Hansa lamp. Some pictures of the burner might help. That type of lamp head was used by Brama, Blanchard, Hasag and Kitson so it...
