Hello:

Any idea on age of this stove? Did a bunch of web surfing and could not find much info. Can’t wait to get it cleaned up and installed up at camp.

Thanks

Congrats, nice little range.

The year the patterns were made might be part of any part numbers inside the castings. That was done by some stove manufactures. Example; Initials of the manufacturer, model number, year, and part number separated by dashes.

The simple style is much like what many range manufactures were transitioning to after 1905. My guess is it was built sometime between 1910 and 1920 ?????

Thanks Paul I will look when I disassemble to clean it up. I was guessing late 1800 early 1900.
