Found this sweet old Coleman Peak 1 Model 400 stove at a garage sale today. Paid $2.00 for it and it works like a charm. Not sure what I will do with the stove yet but will make active use of it, probably on canoe trips where the extra weight of the stove and naphtha fuel is not a concern.


Original Box


Original Manual and receipt. The date on the receipt is Jan. 20, 1983.



The stove still has fuel in it but no telling what vintage the fuel is, but the stove fired up on the first try.
