Coleman "Picnic" Stove

[pawclaws]

Picked up a gadget the other day by accident; thought it might make a nice display for my Ohio Camp Cooks function. It is a 2 burner LP gas Coleman "Picnic" stove. It has an original white, six oz LP gas cannister. I can find very little information out about the stove; but, the cannister has a "female" coupeling rather than male. This is the only cannister I have seen of this type. Anyone got any ideas how old this thing might be? I did a Google search and found two others, both single burners with very little other information and could not find any source for fuel.

Paws.. If you can you post a picture of it might help us have a better idea.

My Uncle is always picking up antique camping epuipment so if you got a pic i'll send it to him and see if he can help.

Well, take a picture of it and post it so we can all see it. Probably paid 50cents for it at a yard sale didn't you?

Thanks for the link; but, that's where I found the single burner model. Yeah I can get a picture of it posted I think. It was a freebie my cousin got on a trade and thought I'd like to have it.
