    I think this was my dad's from his boy scout years. Dad was born in 1922.
    My family used it growing up in the 1960s and 70s. Also I used it while camping with my own kids in the 90s.

      Ww2 Army Surplus Coleman stove. Originally most of these were painted green but the fuel caused the paint to peel off.on he side of the tank there would have been a yellow label with instructions for use. See were very poplar with Boy Scouts and backpackers for years and years until the new even smaller cook stoves were available.
