Husband and I recently added this great little cook stove to our house. I have looked online but am not finding any information on it. Not sure if it's actually coal burner or wood, would love to know anything about it. What is the best place to go for the old catalogs?

1916 catalog.
Start at about page 800 for stoves. Might not be in this catalog. Maybe the 1895 one.

Stoves start on page 844. Many pages of stoves. You need to use the slide thingy under the catalog page to get to the wanted page.
Im not going to be much help with your stove but the people here will need more and much clearer pictures to help you, especially where the fire is in the stove, the stove grate.

Hard to tell with ash still on it, but if that grate is one piece, I suspect it's a "rocker" type wood grate. If so, it will not work well for clearing ash with coal.
And while not absolute, the lack of any fire brick firebox liner would also indicate it was likely meant for wood only.
