Early Meths/Paraffin Burner Kit

Davy got this on ebay, it looks brilliant, seems to be made from tin and I would think probably from the early 1930's
 
 
it's composed of a meths burner with stand, a tin cup with folding handles and a lid
 
 
 it's a brilliant wee set up and you can see where modern burners like the trangia etc got their ideas!
 

filled with meths it heated up a 1pint mug in about 6 mins, that's brilliant even by modern standards.
if anyone knows anything about this kit, please let us know, we think it's made by Tower.
