Re: Mo old stoves 1 of 2
Hi Eric,
Over 120 now, I was trying to stop at 110, but there are so many neat, old stoves. Waiting for a Radius 19, lipstick burner stove from Sweden now. Looks un-used. Expanded my Optimus 8/8R collection, found a few either not used or nice shape ones. I have to recount them, they may be related to rabbits.
Best regards to the family. No JMT trip this year, headed to Glacier.

Mo old stoves 2 of 2
Primus 41 roarer with windscreen deployed kero
Some nickel plated stoves, I believe a 5, 96, 210 00 kero
Enders 9060, have to look the model up wg
Primus 41 roarer and silent burner opened up kero
Primus 41's closed kero
I believe the first model of the Optimus 8, "pipe"/fuel line, very unique wg
side view of the 8's case, not painted, some sort of finish
Unfired Opimus embossed case 8, green, paperwork too wg
The KAP Arctic stove in the buff, notice the curved channel piece, priming fluid is placed there to go down to the priming cup with wick multi fuels
KAP Arctic stove very rare, got this at a small fraction of the price it might have sold for if not from a private party, in a Trangia windscreen, lower section
Enders Baby wg
Optimus 199 big brother to the Optimus 99 stove. Expensive stove, found a source of new ones, much cheaper than used ones. multi fuels

Re: Mo old stoves
Thank you, will have to get a couple of the old 96's out, fired up most of my stoves the last couple months. Have 30 of the Primus 96's dating back as early as 1913 per the date code on them.

Re: Mo old stoves
Nice collection, some really unique pieces you have.
I thought of your post when I came across a (not all that old in the grand scheme of things) Prentiss Waber M-1942-MOD, 1945 MFG stove that I found in my Dad's things I was sorting through after he passed recently. I remember him using it a few times when we were out camping with him near Yosemite a few years ago. I have to go back up to his place and do some digging, he apparently had a couple of other older stoves tucked away somewhere.
