Along the west side of the building on the top it reads "The Coleman Lamp and Stove Company Limited"
On the front of the building it says "Coleman" with picture advertisements of the "Flood-Lite" and another more faded product.
Business is currently Motorcade Autoparts store.
Coleman's relationship to Toronto began in 1925 when he opened a plant there. Sheldon Coleman (the founders son) worked at this plant. And it was the Toronto division of Coleman that created the miniaturized gasoline pressurized stove, the Model 222, in 1976. That stove became the backbone of the Peak 1 line of Coleman products.
