Baseburners & Antiques: Art Garland No 46

Hi All,

I am new to the forum and hoping to get some advice. I picked up an Art Garland No 46 at an estate sale. All though I have found various articles on base burners, I haven't found this particular No 46.
Would anyone on here have any info on this particular model?

I think I would like to restore it, for now just as a conversation piece. I plan on having it sand blasted but after that, is it better to apply paint or polish? I also plan on having nickel plating done. There are a couple of cracks that I am hoping to have repaired. ANY Advice will be appreciated!

JW

Welcome to the forum.

I can't help with your stove, but others here will be able to help you immensely.

Can you provide pictures of the inside also, along with the damaged areas?

Thanks for the added photos, that will save time when the guys that know these stoves get back online.

The first thing they usually ask for is pictures of the firepot and grates.

Welcome to the forum ! To get you started go up to the search box and type in Art Garland. One of the members has a thread on his . I think it is lefarm .

Another thing to do is go back to your profile page and fill in your location. You may be close to another member that may be able to help you with local sources for materials you will need.

There is a wealth of information here and great advice to get you in the right direction.

I couldn't find any new CL ads yesterday.

This Art Garland will be a beautiful stove once completed.

Welcome,

Those cracks can be welded, but you need to find a welder who is experienced in welding cast iron. Not all professional welders are these days.

Welcome to the forum - you've found the BEST place for antique coal stove info.

There are many members who have collections of stoves of all types, including Garland Base Burners.

I believe I have at least one Garland catalog. I'll check and see if it has your No. 46.

This type of stove is very time consuming to restore, due to its complexity and the delicate castings of the multiple mica doors. Plus, the nickle will cost a small fortune to have plated. I've wanted to get one for several years, but was put off by Emery at the stove hospital. They told me a couple of years ago they tend to stay away from them for those reasons.

However, they are amazing looking and amazing heaters. Hopefully you got it for a good price.

Please post lots of pictures of the process.

Chris

You need to contact Emery at the Stove Hospital and have him restore your stove. This will be a beautiful, functional work of art by the time he's done with it. If your going to do it...do it right.

I am attaching an Art Garland catalog from 1888-89. It does not depict your exact stove but may give you a starting point for information.

Thanks Randy. Very interesting.

Especially the sections about the cook stoves, the "stair-step" high oven cook stoves, and the ranges. It's one of the best examples I've seen so far of an original catalog with info that clearly shows the difference in kitchen stove types and options that were available back then.

Would you mind if I reposted that info in the Cookin' With Coal thread ?

Randy,

Looking at the pictures posted by the OP his Art Garland was made by the Michigan Stove Company. That may explain why there is no reference to the stove in the Canadian catalog.

I had a similar issue when searching the John M Wolf Company plate on my Rosemont. It turned out Wolf Co. bought out Floyd Wells Co and installed their cast nameplate on the later Rosemonts.

To further confuse us, some well established eastern stove companies moved out west, or opened additional factories in other parts of the country as the country was still growing westward in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Where stoves were made can be confusing at times, ...... almost as confusing as the companies that made them. :D
