What model is this

I picked this up on marketplace and would like to know the value. Are mantles available? I have six. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

 

Hi Ron and welcome!

Interesting lantern and hopefully other members will be able to help more

Im afraid we don’t give valuations .. part of the policy here on CPL

Are you planning to get it working?

cheers,

Yes I would love to fire it up. The orifice is clear and the regulator is clear. I have taken it apart and cleaned it up. I know that it is a tilley from the Swedish civil defense.

 

appears to date from the 1960’s..



here’s an image of it with the guard

 

Welcome aboard!

 

Thank you guys

 

All very puzzling. The label and parts list on the orange box are clearly cross referencing Primus with Tilley.

 

Does it have a removable reflector or is the back of the lamp the reflector ??

 

I noticed the primus logo after taking the picture. The glass has tilley on each piece. The reflector is removable.

 

OK. So that rules out the Tilley LPG GF825.


Could you post a pic of the tag on the back please.

 

Somewhere on the internet it said this number is Swedish civil defense. Don't know if that's correct.

 

I'd easily accept that.

The Primus connection has me wondering.
My only guess is the Civil Defence using the logo because the Swedish public would know if for LPG lights.
Sounds like a bad guess to me too.
I find it hard to believe Tilley made that box.
