This is made out of cast iron. Inside the door it has a wooden floor. It is 29 inches high. The top is 13 1/4 x 5 1/2 center to center on the top plate bolt holes. The door has JEWEL and L67 cast in it. The knob on door ha L66 cast in it. What was it used for and approximate age. It is HEAVY. Jewel was a name on stoves. This might be a tool stand like a mill/ planer with the waste going in the compartment.
looks like blacksmith oven ...could be wrong lose all my stamps,.. the wood inside was added later by someone eles I think ...lol nice find
must be a patent number on it....?
The wood has been in there for a long time. Looks original but?? There was something bolted on top. Been talking with others and think it might have been a base for a leather punching machine. the holes went in the bottom. If it would have been a oven I think the door handle would have been made from spring to disperse the heat. Your thoughts??? Will not sell this till I find out its use. Hope I live long enough , LOL.
like i said must have a patent number on it..." ?
No patent number
"With the buyout of Art Stove Co. in 1923, the Detroit–Michigan Stove Company made gas ranges for homes and heavy-duty heating and cooking appliances for hotels, clubs, restaurants, and institutions under the "Garland" and "Laurel" as well as "Jewel" and "Detroit Jewel" names, in addition to stoves and furnaces. In 1927, the company placed a thirty ton Garland stove replica on the roof of its factory, near the approach to Belle Isle, which was built for the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago. In 1955, Welbilt Stove acquired Detroit-Michigan Stove and the consolidated company became Welbilt Corp., a public corporation that inherited Detroit-Michigan's listing on the New York Stock Exchange"
I do not think this is a stove because of the wood floor in it.
