    In the world of collectable classic camp stoves, this seems to be a very common one. But I have noticed that the price asked by sellers seems to vary wildly. I got this one off FB Marketplace for a very reasonable price, given its good condition. I had to replace the pump cup and NRV, but it has run well ever since.

    I really like to closely examine the details in the crude representations of a stove found on Primus stoves. They each have their own charm.

    Flat pump knob that covers the pump cap. I really like this low profile design. Wish it was more common on pack away stoves.

    Its always nice when an old stove comes with a leak-free spirit bottle

    The hinged wind shield is a bit of a puzzle

    Its a lovely little stove, and and joy to cook with, but it wouldn't be my first choice for outdoor cooking. I find the tube style burner difficult to light in windy conditions like at the beach.
