Ross is right. Similar to the 502A. Made to look like the original 502. Though it is a 508 dressed to look like the 502. Not worth it to me but thats just me maybe. Cheers, Jeff
There are loads of these for sale on US ebay. I read somewhere that they did not sell to well in Japan because of the poor materials used on the stove. The font is made to look like a nickel font but it is covered with some kind of spray paint that comes off. This is only what I have read and maybe someone who has one can sing its praises. Give me a 500 or 502 any day. Den
you are right - there is a load of them on ebay - i was just wondering what the quality of them would be.
The quality of these isn't anything to write home about. The standard Coleman quality but just a poor fit and finish. They also made a lantern to mark the 100 years. Sadly Coleman didn't do at great job or could have done better I think. But 110 years is coming up. Jeff
Not to mention, they are overpriced for a single burner Coleman stove. Question: Are any Coleman stoves made in N. America anymore? I was wondering where the Centennial stoves/lanterns may have been made.
