      You need better pictures that show the door hinges and screws, the inside and the grates. Also somewhere there are either foundry marks or made in Taiwan etc. Is it fire brick lined? Is there an ash pan or coal shaker? You don't give much to work with. How tall and wide is it? What is the diameter of the griddles? Give us something to work with.

      i dont own the stove yet and have the only picture he sent me. said he thought it said brown stove co no.2 other than that i would look it up myself. i was just hoping somebody would recognize it from the picture. thanks

      Beware of anyone who "THINKS" what it is. If they don't know what they have for sure and they are trying to sell it, that should be a red flag. Other countries flooded us with reproduction wood and coal stoves during the 80's and most of them were unsafe. They were made thin and cheap with no gaskets between the joints.

      it is not being sold. my aunt wants to give it to me and is not home to look at markings to determine as she is on vacation. she sent the photo from her phone. i have been burning wood my whole life. just thought someone might recognize it. thanks

      Burning wood and identifying stoves are two different things. The identifying markings are important. Even more important if it was made in this country. Lots of companies had their stoves made in two or three different foundries. One foundry may have produced a lesser quality stove than expected and the contract let to a different one. In other instances there may have been more than one foundry producing the same stove at the same time. Some can be quite valuable and others are better for a show piece.

      If the photo showed the characteristics of the legs, there would be a small diamond indentation, near the top of the curved portion of the leg, near the stove base. It should also have a foundry plate, attached on the top left portion of the stove top.
      If it has the small diamonds, where I described, it was made by the Brown Stove Works of Columbus, Tn.
