I can't be the only one with a pretty nice stove out in the shop.

The story on this one is my grandpa built liberty ships in Los Angeles during WW the second. After the war he went back home to Kansas, bought a house and some "things", among them this stove that was already installed in his garage before I was born. I own it now. I am not looking for cash offers so much as an idea of how much insurance coverage I should put on it. This thing is no longer airtight, I look forward to replacing the gaskets in her someday.

Look forward to seeing your old stoves too...

Retired now but left the sticks my grandma put in there for old times sake.
 
Man I love those parlor stoves. To bad they don't make them like that anymore. I have my eye on a working one at an antique store. When the store closes down I'm going to scoop it up. Both those ^^ stoves are awesome.
 
I had a dowagiac round oak when I lived in atlanta, but no pics. Sold it (and most everything else I owned) for running money when I moved.
