MN, USA. for a brief period in the early 1920's. It is shown in the 1923 Catalog, but not in the 1926 catalog. CONDITION & HISTORY: This lantern was completely stripped down and cleaned. The ventilator and font/tank were sent out and BOTH have been restored with a high temp. Industrial hard Powder coat finish at a very high temp.. The Burner frame has also been restored with a bright High temp. Powder Coat Silver & Chrome finish. A small ding or two on the tank/fount, but NO dents on this lantern. Has a brass coated CERAMIC BURNER.  The generator is used and will most likely need to be replaced. Coleman R55 Generators work on this model.  There is no Mica globe. However, they can easily be purchased. New Cap Gasket installed. The valve assembly has also been repacked with new graphite.  All Valves turn smoothly, Holds air fine! Air flows through the generator when the valve is opened.  I have never tested the heat tolerance of the product used and can NOT state how well it holds up, as I NEVER burn my restored lanterns.  All that is to be known about this lantern has been DISCLOSED in this listing.  Should you have any other questions, feel free to ask, but as stated, it has ALL been disclosed!   The Lantern pictured is exactly what you will receive.  Not warranties are implied.  If you can NOT follow the auction terms, simply do not bid. Thanks for looking and have a nice day.In the future I will be listing: Coleman Lantern, AGM, American Gas Machine, Sears, Montgomery Ward, Diamond Akron, Nulite, Radiant, Sunshine Safety, Prentis Waber, Turner, Gas, Kerosene and Propane Lanterns.
