Grabbed this Stewart base burner today.
Now I need to build another chimney on the other end of the house.
I think all it's missing is its top ring.

Hi Kstone,
It is an internally bypassed full base heater/burner. The back pipe is only used to exhaust gases not to recirculate them. It is almost indentical gas path wise to a Glenwood 111 with its rear ash clean out doors. The fire pot measures 10 wide by 14 deep. The barrel is 30 inches high x 13&1/2 wide. It is slightly larger than a Crawford no. 2 Also it has an area for cooking (I think) and a Glenwood 111 upper ring seems to be almost made for it.
As soon as I see a casting date I'll post that up.

Found out today that after Philo Penfield Stewart died in 1868 that the PP Stewart co. dropped the PP and just used the name Stewart.
But I found a 1901 newspaper that advertises "PP Stewart" Cooking Ranges.
Don't know if the cooking range names were changed at a later date.
So this stove could possibly be made before Philo passed in 1868?
This stove has no secondary air adjustment controls, thereby pointing to it being an early stove?
Maybe someone with knowledge will chime in?
I hope so.

It seems they were bought out and the Stewart name was used by Fuller &Warren in Troy NY. Take a look here,
http://www.hoxsie.org/2012/04/fuller-warren-co-stoves.html
My Brother-in-law-to-be has a "Service Stewart", Fuller & Warren coal/gas range that I covered on page 36, in the "Cookin' with Coal" thread - page.
Looks like Fuller & Warren were out in the Midwest and moved to Troy, or had factories in more than one place. A web search of "Stewart stoves" turns up a lot of Fuller & Warren parlor and range stoves with the trade mark name of "Stewart". From what I'm seeing on the web, some of the early type stoves made out west and the later designs say Troy NY.
Hope this helps.

I just blew up the picture of the Fuller & Warren bill from that link and the date is 1860. The small print on top says, "Exclusive Manufacturers of Stewart's Air Tight Summer and Winter Cooking Stoves."
So Fuller & Warren's association with P.P. Stewart predates his death ?
By the way, there's supposed to be a lot of stove manufacturing info in the archives at the Albany Institute of History and Art museum in Albany. And likely more around the corner at the NY State Museum too.

CONGRATS on your new toy! Did I not tell you that once you acquire your FIRST BB that "baseburneritis" will soon set in? Well my fellow Taxachusetts Gun Nut did I also not tell you there is NO CURE for this disease as well? All we can hope for is a wife (or significant other as the case may be) that understands this disease and is supportive or at least tolerant with it.
CONGRATS AGAIN!!

And it's my understanding that the reference to "PP Stewart" was changed to "Stewart" at some date after his death.
I believe, but can't verify, that it was manufactured before the turn of the century.
I did however the number 68 cast into one of the pieces....that would be crazy if it was made in 1868.
Every piece so far has "PPS 14" and some have "PPS 14 16", those could be common parts to both size stoves?

Don't say it's a chimney. Tell her it's the tower to hold the antenna for the Amateur band radio Then when she says no tower, just say 'ok honey, i'll make it into a chimney.Gekko wrote:I got it bad, it's a good thing I have not hit the powerball or I'd start a museum.ONEDOLLAR wrote:Gekko

Interesting how many NY built stoves turn up in Massachusetts, . . and how many Massachusetts built stoves turn up in NY.
