Ahh the good old days when you could tug a woman’s shirt with your teeth and not land in prison. Lol.

Now that was funny!!!

Could anyone tell me what exactly I have here. model, how old, potential value? I have cleaned it up quite a bit since these were taken

I have seen a number of these out on Craigslist and have assumed that they were possibly a variation of an apartment type cookstove. On the contrary, from this catalog entry it reads like they were intended to heat the kitchen when all the other appliances were gas. This one's description suggests it had a hot water pipe/jacket.
I had once seen an ornate one on Craigslist, that I seem to recall was a Detroit Stove Works model.

It seems like the space a gas cookstove plus one of these kitchen heaters would take up nearly as much space as a combination range, and have an oven. Would a gas cookstove plus a kitchen heater been less expensive than a combination range?

Is the cabinet/porcelain type stove that the original poster ( lockhoouse 13 ) has meant to serve the same function as this catalog entry of a cast iron kitchen heater?
