vessels (1 1/3 and 1 pint), and a pot grip/handle. The smaller container can be used as a lid or frying

pan.

The cook kit was lightly used. The windscreen and base have a few minor dings, which can be seen in

the listed photos. Overall, for its age, the unit is in very good condition.

Joining the cook kit is a Primus #71, which is the Primus version of the usually included Svea 123. The

Primus burns white fuel (refined gas), holds approximately 1/3 of a pint, and will bring a quart of water to boil in

about 6 minutes. This Primus 71 is from the 1970s. The Primus 71 stove is all brass. The stove has not been

used in a few years, but it was working well the last time out. The “tulip” burner unscrews and nests with

the stove base inside the Optimus 88 cook kit for backpacking.

When the kit is packed it is 6 1/2" in diameter and 4" tall.
