Primus 234 1912. No1 compact outfit

Hi here is my Primus 234 from 1912.
It comes in a no1 compact outfit. A unusual burner and not one I have come across before. I see there are only 2 others in the reference gallery so thought I would add mine! It seems to have the original instructions with it and I also have the windshield just not in the photos. Thanks Aaron

 

Same silent burner unit as fitted to the Primus No.4. Nice little stove, the silent burner Lilliput 234 is far less common than the roarer 231, a great find especially in Compact Outfit form. A real treasure

 

Thank you. I will have a look at the no.4!
I’m still trying to expand my knowledge of Primus stoves I have been collecting for a few years now but mainly stay with 96’s

Ooo la la what a treasure!

Thank you and thank you for the link an interesting read!

 

Magnificent stove set ! Could you post an image of the stove and accessories when they are packed in the case ? Thanks

 

Fantastic score and addition to your collection, the early models were so well made, even the brass filler caps on the fuel and spirit tins were made beautifully, well done on a great addition

 

Thanks. I have added some photos of it packed away. It seems to be a tight fit and the lug for holding the pot stands would appear to of been lost at some point.

 

Lovely kit

 

Wonderful, wonderful set!

Alec.

 

Hi @Aaron1980 on some of these compact outfits the restraining clip for the stove legs was on the base of the container:

 

These boxes, where every element has its place and every space is utilized, are an example of design mastery.
A great acquisition.

 

@Aaron1980
Thank you for posting the additional images . A lovely set from an elegant age . A collectors dream .

Thank you everyone! Kerophile The tin does indeed have the clips on the base! I assumed the little square clip on the side near the top was for the pot stands? Amazing all these little things I learn every time I post a stove!

 

A time capsule

 

That is a gem!

 

Very nice.
