Classic vintage Coleman 413G camping stove featuring a two-burner design and the iconic red 'white gas' fuel tank. This heavy-duty cooker includes built-in wind guards and a fold-out case design for easy transport. Perfect for overlanding, vintage camping enthusiasts, or emergency preparedness. It retains its original lighting instructions on the underside of the lid and demonstrates the rugged 'Made in USA' construction that Coleman is famous for.
Key Features
Highly reliable dual-burner design, iconic red/green aesthetic, 'bomb-proof' durability, and a massive collector following for vintage 'White Gas' (Coleman Fuel) equipment.
Authenticity Indicators
Original Coleman logo decal, stamped model number 413G on the front of the case, and manufacturer's date stamp on the bottom of the tank/case. Confidence level: High.
Flaws to Note
Surface oxidation on the burner assembly and grate; soot and grease residue inside the case; potential for a dried-out leather pump cup (needs oiling); untested fuel pressurized system.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace (best to avoid shipping costs), eBay (if willing to ship), or Etsy (marketed as a vintage decor/functional piece).
Selling Tips
Clean the interior with degreaser and lightly sand/oil the grate to improve visual appeal. Crucially, mention if the tank holds pressure when pumped. If it 'hisses' when you open the valve, it will sell for 30% more. Use keywords: 'Vintage Coleman', 'Survival', 'Overlanding', '413G', 'White Gas'.
