Gas irons were invented to solve the problems associated with traditional coal irons. Coal irons required coals to be constantly heated, removed, and replaced from the iron, and the subsequent coal dust and soot from the fires would make the garments being ironed dirty. 

Fuel-powered irons date to the turn of the 20th century and gas-powered irons like this one continued to be manufactured by companies like the Coleman group into the 1980s. 

This lovely little lady is an older example of a gas iron and likely dates to the 1920s/30s. Her paint is in exceptional condition for her age, as is her tank. She has been lovingly cared for, adorned with flowers, and would make a beautiful decorative piece for display in your home.
