The 17B…original box…tin…and advert. Unlike the early 17B model, this later version does not have a parking position for the reserve cap on the stove. The clipped 2-section windshield cleverly slides one section into the other… …with the inner section sliding out of the outer when the full scope of the windshield is required. Overhead view of the 17B’s deep tank stampings. Raised flame spreader plate - a feature of the 17B. The burner has two opposing slots in the neck to prevent jamming occurring on the vapouriser. This design was patented by Monitor in 1951. Each pot support has six notches added to assist in ‘pan stability’. Knurling designs. Original 1950’s advertisement magazine clippings for the 17B. An inflationary tale… Pharael.
What a great example! You can clearly see that the spirit dish is larger than in its Swedish original (96). One pour should be enough.
@Lighthouse - Many thanks for your very kind comments. You too though have a wonderful example of the 17B, which I note is the older version of the model to mine . Pharael.
thank you but alas, it is no longer in my possession. sold off quite a few stoves last year to better showcase my collection with the available space. i've always liked these little critters, especially the sturdy windshield.
@The Warrior - Cheers! Had this 17B a long time - finally getting round to posting this and a few other stoves into the SRG Pharael.
I've had a 17b for some time as well, never posted it. Looked it up, purchased in November of '24, haha. Sad.
@Twoberth - Thank you very much! It’s loud enough to have to raise you voice in a conversation in the kitchen but what a superb performer. Pharael
