    An 'unedu-ma-kated' guess:

    #2-3 is an Optimus 80

    #1 &4 is a Svea 123.

    The stove in #1 has odd cut-outs in the burner and also on the end of the burner's plate. (Squared ends and is it marked??)

    #1 is a 123R for sure. But what's up with that burner plate?

    And I'm sticking with the 80 for #2/3,....#4 Is the 123

    No one has them all right yet, though one person got 3 out of 4.

    And 'priest', #1 is not a 123R!! :D :D :D

    Any more suggestions??

    Hi again.

    Hmm, now when I looked at them again, I say that picture number 2 is a Svea No 123R :)
