It's time for the old girl to go to a new home ( stove, Grandma went walkies years ago).
Andes Kitchen stove, but is it a coal stove?
Do I have enough parts to make it work?
Is it of interest here, or should I send it off to the local auction house?
Presently it's in upstate Ny, and prolly too awkward to ship safely
All help greatly appreciated.

They were designed to burn coal or wood. I have one similar to that but it has gas burners as well, the idea being the owner would burn coal or wood in the winter when heating was required and gas in the summer.
Nice looking stove!

Those are definitely coal grates - known as triangular grates, or sometimes called "prism grates". Very good at daily grinding up coal ash, and clinkers before they get too hard.
Andes was one of the top NYS stove makers.
