My neighbor asked me if I knew anything about this brand. I found little to no information on the internet. Judging by the style of writing of Cramer I’m saying 70’s era and maybe one of the earlier wood furnaces. It didn’t strike me as a coal burner. Does anyone on here have any information on these?

It's got an under fire spinner--if it's got grates & a shaker handle--it's good for coal--those thongs to the left are definitely for wood???

Ive not seen it myself but there was a picture of one on the net. It didn’t look like shaker grates. I’ll ask the neighbor. Would you say that’s fairly accurate about the decade and it being one of the first wood type furnaces on the market?

I zoomed in on the picture in my photo album. It’s a bit more clear. Hanging on the side is a long handled ash shovel and a long poker rod.
