I got another brass camping stove + other good stuff . An Army belt with a canteen & pouch , another canteen , 2 Vornado fans and an old Primus no. 54 stove .

It was at a hospital rummage sale run by volunteers . Nothing is priced - you just bring an armload of stuff and set it on the table to cash out , the lady counted my items with her finger and said " how about 5 bucks " I said " Sure " she didn't even wonder what was in the the green box .

I'll post another picture of the stove once I get it all polished up - I love polishing brass ;D

Sold them all.

What's the value on the stove?
I've had great luck selling vintage fans.

Mojjax - Can you tell us what you used to clean both the iron and brass parts of that stove. You really did a great job!
