    Description

    here is a coleman model number 2 clothing iron . it uses white gas or coleman fuel to produce its heat not electricity so it can be used anywhere , not that i iron clothes wile camping :-)  these were produced 1925 to 1927 so its a little over 90 years old !!! i disassembled most of it cleaned everything put it back together and it works fine after a proper pre heat to get it started . you dont pump this appliance up like most Coleman devices , instead the preheat creates pressure within the fuel tank . then you crack the valve and it takes off ..... i have a scan of the original directions i will forward the buyer , it explains all about how to preheat and operate this iron . there is a lot of metal to these irons it weighs close to 6 lbs empty , once heated up they stay hot for a long time .... i wouldnt expect your wife to enjoy using it in this modern world but she could ?? LOL
    it now has included an original wrench that would have come with this iron originaly , one part is used like a key to turn it on or open the valve , one other part is used to tighten ot remove the packing nut as shown . not many of these wrenches stayed with the irons till today :-)
