Antique Primus Stove in Original Tin
This lot offers an antique Primus stove presented with its original tin. The stove is a brass pressure burner with a folding wire carrying frame and a fuel filler cap on the upper surface. Lettering reading “PRIMUS” appears on the stove body, and the tin is decorated with a printed Primus lantern design on a yellow, green and red ground. Several accessories accompany the stove, including two perforated metal windshields, one of which bears “Made in” lettering, a small cylindrical fuel container, a burner head and a further metal disc with radiating supports.
Condition and Collector Interest
The tin shows surface rust, wear and loss of paint, consistent with its age and years of use. The brass stove shows general tarnish and handling marks. Its accessories show signs of age and use. No further description of working order is given. Items of this type are of interest to collectors of vintage camping equipment and Primus memorabilia, particularly where the stove is presented with its original tin and associated accessories.
