- Description
- A blue and silver metal Coleman Self-Heating clothes iron with a stand plate, hand-held pump, instruction manual with spare parts, and Coleman Measuring Can in the original cardboard box. The iron consists of a solid metal base, blue body and handle, and a small fount on the back - it sits on a thin metal stand that has the Coleman logo embossed on it and keeps the iron raised off of surfaces. The instruction manual details all aspects of using the iron and also has a small paper envelope with small spare parts inside. The Coleman Measuring Can is mostly yellow with an opening into which gasoline can be poured and a small curved spout on the top. Iron also has a small gold and black metal pump that, according to the instruction manual, is used to pump air into the fount. Everything except the measuring can is housed in the original cardboard box, kept closed with a piece of string.
