Robins primus 71 part 2

Here is Robin's Robins Primus 71 stove, with the stand and the billy/container.

Here is a photo of just the stove.

Here is the Primus stamp on the base of the stove.

The stove in the billy (pot) stand.

Here is the underside of the base of the stove with the 'AU' date stamp clearly visible. As we know, according to the Primus Date Chart, 'AU' means Robin's stove is the 1955 model.

Today I lit it, boiled some water and made a small plunger of coffee. As I sipped I raised my mug in salute to Robin.
