This is a ( New perfection ) coal oil stove ca. 1932/1933 in very good condition. rescued from middle tn. this stove has 3 burners with dampers, all dampers are working, only missing a single damper ring. the same damper is missing the lighting shield. the unit was made in Cleveland Ohio, there is makers mark on the right side shown in pics. 32x42x17.5
When I was just a little younger I made toast on one of these every morning. Just lay a slice of bread on the griddle and flip it when it was ready. There was always a percolator on one burner for coffee. We finally had electric but no electric toaster so we used the kerosene stove to make toast. My story may be a little before your time. The stove brings back memories of winter mornings.
That is a great memory, My grandpa made biscuits on an old wood stove and it just reminded me of those days.
