What did you call the real white gas that Coleman and others sell for
lanterns and stoves?


As far as I know, they didn't sell that in the 50s. I never saw "Coleman
Fuel"
until the mid-70s.

I'm pretty sure it was availabe in the late 60s, but my memory doesn't
go back any farther than that! I've been searching around trying to
find the history of Coleman fuel, aka "white gas", but no luck yet.

The Coleman web site claims they've been making gas lanterns for over
100 years. Is Coleman fuel anything other than gasoline without the
additives added to motor fuel?
