Rarest Of All Colemans, Yale ML211 Made By Coleman
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:2800258 | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
Possibly the rarest of all Coleman lanterns. I have emails between Jerry Enbring and me with references to and/or comments from Carl Tucker, Ernie Hyatt, Neil Mc Rae and Charleen Becker. All the most revered Coleman experts explaining the origins and history of the lantern. This lantern is referenced in the green Coleman book but not the newer book.You notice the font is a 319 font but is steel and not brass. That is a refrigerator magnet on it showing that in fact it... is steel. No markings at all.You can tell from the photos that is was obviously made by Coleman which took over Yale in 1917. It was sold by Yale under the Arco-Lite name.Buyer pays actual shipping costs.
