Just went and looked in the garage, I have 5 of the large 2 burner and 3 small 2 burner. Up in the mountains I have a 3 burner like the 1 pictures and 1 each of the 2 burner. They are 60s/70s with the red tanks.
This is after selling 2 3 burners and about 6 of the 2 burners last year, after the wife no more... I sold them for 20 and 30 bucks, all tanks worked.
That older tank is from the 50s.
Mostly I run them off propane, converter with hose and tank, I will run them off white gas for the nostalgia occasionally.
First one I got for myself I found a 2 burner/large in a pile of junk behind my grandparents house, the tank was no good, I bought a converter for 10 bucks and painted it army green... 1978. Used it for many years, still have it.

That is a lot of stoves. I guess you just like stoves, eh?

That stove runs on white gas.
Some of the new Colemans run on propane. I find that easier during power outages. I converted mine a long time ago. Same as Jim's, I got mine from my FIL so it must be from the early/mid 50s. I do wish I had the tank for it though.
Fight fire, save lives, laugh in the face of danger.
Stupid always finds a way.

I have two of those white gas stoves.One was never used.Also have 4 white gas Coleman Lanterns.They are the best thing for tracking wounded deer at night.For some reason they make the blood glow. Those lanterns are great. Good memories. Can you still get mantles? I think it is same one used on the propane lanterns.However I have a bunch of them.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience
