i have a beautiful optimus primus 100n pressure lantern.
fully working and just a great little lantern. rare to find so i am told and cant find one in the bay of evil.
i think they date between 1949 and 1957. it runs on parrafin and little coleman mantles.
I will put photos up later tonight. or tomorrow morning.
this is a wonderful little lamp and im offering it for swaps of a gransfors bruks small forest axe which must be in near new condition.
I would also consider swapping it for an enzo trapper. in mint condition.
or a gransfors wildlife hatchet condition vital.
would also swap it for a primus/ optimus the hiker model is the one i think im looking for.
these lanterns are smaller than vapalux or tilley by about 4 inches in height. and just ooze primus quality.
the one in question is fully working. as photos will show.
cheers guys.

I'd be tempted to put the lantern on ebay with a £70 reserve rather than swap for an axe, you may well get more money on the bay.
