VenmoUp for sale is a stunning, beautifully preserved Vintage Kirkham’s Springbar Traveler canvas tent from the golden era of Salt Lake City manufacturing (circa 1980–1985).
The Traveler is one of Springbar's most iconic designs, featuring the highly desirable 8ft x 10ft footprint and a 6.5ft interior standing height. If you know Springbar history, you know this specific timeframe represents the pinnacle of Kirkham's domestic production—cut, sewn, and finished right here in Utah. The heavy-duty cotton duck canvas quality and weatherproofing on these vintage models are second to none.
It is incredibly rare to find a 40-year-old Traveler in this kind of structurally excellent, camp-ready condition.
Condition Highlights:
- The Canvas: Clean, tight, and robust with no dry rot, no structural patches, and absolutely no musty mildew smells.
- The Hardware: Genuine heavy-duty, double-sided YKK metal zippers operate perfectly smooth with no oxidation, missing teeth, or fabric fraying around the tracks.
- The Interior/Floor: Solid, well-maintained floor with intact corner stitching.
- Storage: Always carefully dried completely before being stored in a dry, climate-controlled, smoke-free environment.
Specifications:
- Model: Springbar Traveler (Model 4000)
- Footprint: 8ft x 10ft (Comfortably sleeps 3–4 people with plenty of room for gear)
- Design: Classic spring-tempered roof bar frame for rapid, one-person setup. Large mesh rear window and large front door provide incredible cross-ventilation.
Includes the Traveler tent body, original poles, and stakes. Perfect for a vintage camping enthusiast, a classic vehicle camper, or anyone who wants a local piece of Utah outdoor heritage built to last another 40 years.
Pickup & Inspection Details:
- Location: Available for local pickup in South Jordan / Salt Lake Countyarea.
- Inspection: I am happy to open the bag and let you inspect the pristine canvas and YKK zippers upon arrival. Because of the setup size, I will not be pitching the full tent at the pickup spot, but the attached photos show its perfect structural shape from this week.
- Payment: Cash or Venmo preferred at the time of exchange. No holds without a deposit. Not interested in trades for electronic items, tools, or modern nylon tents.
