1938 - Primus 1010

Hi just bought a 1937 Don caravan in great condition and found this Primus 1010 AC in the cupboard wondering how old it actually is ad it doesn’t seem to have had much use thank you

 

The heater is from 1938 (AC is the code for 1938) so it is a good match for the caravan. Looks to be complete, including the guard which is often missing. Should clean up and work well.

 

Year added in title.

 

A real original gem and should push out the heat when running. Quite a large burner.

 

Thank you

 

Thanks i found it in an old 1938 van and the can of kero

 

Hi Angela and Welcome to CPL !

that’s a great find and I believe the guard is often mislaid on these
Does it have a lever for the fuel or a dial please?

I’m not familiar with Don caravans but they look fab!

 

Hi yes it is complete I believe

 

Welcome aboard!
That was a lucky find.

 

Welcome to CPL @Angela Cannon
An excellent addition to your caravan and it shouldn't take much to get it going.

 

Thankyou act didn’t know what it was good old google

 

Yes pays to look in a cupboard

 

Nice find Angela!
