Jörgens Camp Stove Collection

"OK", you might think, "camp stoves, what in the world can have a person interested in camp stoves??"... well, if you think that camp stoves are not much of an interest, then, my valued visitor, you are wrong. Hmm.. well, maybe not exactly wrong, but at least not completely right anyway.
A camp stove is in many cases a beautiful construction, with details in shiny brass, chrome or nickle-plate.. They indeed make a very nice sight in the shelf, if restored and polished. And in case of powerfailure, they can actually be used for cooking! They are also, which is a fact that appeals to my beloved fiancee, much smaller than for example old tube radios (of which I have a few), and therefore easier to have around...

It started when I bought this Campus 3 at a flee-market (Myrorna in Norrköping), and payed 20 SEK for it (about 2€ or USD2.5). I bought it because I thought it looked interesting, and that if it worked, I could use it on fishing trips, camping etc. I didn't know anything about it, but I thought that it was a parrafin/kerosene stove, and as a such, it would probably be better than my Trangia 27 stove. Well, when I looked around the internet, I found stove-collector pages, and information, which lead me to grow some interest in those blue-flaming things..
However, for now, I do not intend to let this take a great deal of my time or money, not yet, anyway.. but you'll never know.. ;)
Just click on a thumbnail to open a new window with more photos.
Note that most of the photos here is showing the stoves in the condition in which I bought them!
I will update with photos of the restored/polished stoves in time, as I finish restoring them one by one...
Then I probably will have some kind of "before/during/after"-sequences of photographs for each stove...
By the way, if you have any information on or questions about any of those stoves, or if you find any errors in the information presented here, please send me a mail!
My mail-address is:

 

The stoves are sorted alphabetically after Manufacturer's name. (Except Primus which are all found under P)
