Found this in the shed. Much as I hate throwing things out, anyone want it for the postage cost?

Bet if it was a 1900’s Hardy fly reel you wouldn’t give it away for postage! 😆

That looks to be a stove rather than a lamp. Similar to an old Primus parafin stove.
It’s missing three tent peg looking bits that would have slot into the holes in the edges to support the cooking pot.

I’ve got a sheriff’s badge in a similar condition.

Swap?

Stove, that’s the word I was looking for. Peg bits may be in that tin, I didn’t check the rusty gubbins properly!

Anyone enjoy restoring and polishing useless bits of guff?

Ooooh, me, me, me please.

They can go for reasonable money if the desired model ect and if not still £15 up

If old git didn’t get it I will have it please

To be fair, would someone post what they go for on ebay or where-ever. I remember camping with something similar forty years ago. That’s my interest.

I bet you say that to all the girls

As with everything the devil is in the detail, what MOD l is it etc

It’s a Phoebus 30 and the pan support pins are there. Email from someone about it so looks like it’s found a new home!

I bet you have, dirty boy 😀

Thanks, Dan, it arrived yesterday: well packed and secured with about a hundred yards of tape.

wow. I sorted through a lot of my dad’s old camping gear, and put up some Indian (possible copy) of a Primus style stove. Blow me, it went for about £50 (it was in decent nick to be fair). The guy that bought it said they were sought after items for old style limbing and walking guys, also fishermen and the like. You just never know and – part from the cash – is why I tried to recycle in some way all his stuff.
