The Coleman Company has been making lanterns for a 100 years, but my favorite, the 200A, wasn't produced until 1952. It stayed in production until 1983. The basic design remained the same through the years...a red tank with a red ventilator, pyrex globe on an aluminum base.Here's my 1953 model (4/1953). It's minus the globe and bail but still pretty decent shape. Notice in early '53 the globe base was black metal.
