    Ran across this today at a garage sale, it's a Reform alcohol stove. I've never seen one of these before... but after filling it up, I lit the priming wick and the burner fired up right away. Can anyone give me some history on these?
    Thanks

    Yeah, except for the stamping this looks like it came from the same factory as yours!
