Hi All, My wife suggested for my 70th birthday ( 4 years time) that we return to the states to celebrate. She also said that because I am mad on antique stoves that I should ask you lads where the best stove convention is ,and what date and day its held . It would be great to see maybe some members to put a face to the names. Also as I am totally ignorant about these shows do they make a day of it with food,drinks, Barbecue etc . Thanks in advance wal

70 yrs old, traveling the world to go to coal stove conventions ?

That's the retirement we all want.

I tried to do that but when I got in my car I hurt my back. Back inside the house for some coffee. Trip cancelled.



I think you missed to convention that happened recently, in Chicago at Madison and Michigan ave.

Walt.

The Antique Stove Association is the only one I'm aware of. I believe our member "mntbugy" is on the board. You can try a PM to him for more info about upcoming shows.

https://antiquestoveassociation.org/

Other than that, you can spend days working your way across our New England states just with visits to individual stove restoration shops. I know of at least four that are said to have a few hundred stoves each. All within a few hours' drive of each other.

The Stove Association has the same type characters as coalpail... :clap:

The website is somewhat open to the public in one location. Rest is locked, members only.

Hello, this is my first message. Very new member. I am from the Netherlands and I have a collection of 9 stoves. My husband thinks I am crazy. I am not allowed to buy more stoves but I have rented a garage where I can stack more stuff and coal secretely.
I will be 70 in 2027 also. Now I have this convention on my coal bucketlist!!
Thanks for the idea.

How about some photos of your secret stash of stoves hidden in your garage?
