    My first time to see such a burner design and would think its will make a nice flame pattern when lit. Hope someone can help identify the model.

    If you look closely at the pic, there is writing on the tank I make out the first word says "El"

    Really cool looking stove. not the most packable though. Its a cross between a Coleman 500 and an old kero. Maybe cobbled together at home.

    Wow! Light it up! [-o< [-o< Please, please, please. [-o< [-o<

    The manufacturer in Argentina made stoves is all I know. I have an old Optimus 00 with one of their roarer burners.

    Thank you, friends. I really was very happy to find something never seeing before in so good condition.

    Yes, it is Argentina made stove, that is not a question and I'm sure it is made before WWII.
    Writing on the tank I wrote in the first post.
    I reject the assumptions, that it is home made from some stoves: every part on them looks right and there are not traces of re-doing. A handle is one not genuine part only. I'll do more pictures and post them later.
