    Just picked up a Coleman 413C at a church sale. I got there just as it was ending and they were packing things up. I spotted the stove and made my move. When I did find somebody that was working there he said to just take it so he would have one less thing to put away. It needs some cleaning but other then that it is all there and the tank holds pressure. So after a good washing I will fire it up for a test run. I really couldn't argue about the price $0.00.

    Looking at the reference gallery it appears to be a 1947 model.:content:

    Yes, good find.
    I'd like one of those. I sold my 413D.

    The 425 did not come out for another 5 or 6 years after that.

    I own the same stove and it's a favorite, mine does not look that nice, if you don't love it although I'm sure you will, I would be happy to buy it off you.

    The 425 came out in 1948.
