Description

18" (46 cm.) x 12"w. x 8"d. The heavy cast iron kitchen stove with rich blue enamel fired on finish is decorated with nickel chrome, rests upon a fancy base with claw legs, and features six cast iron burners, large oven, wood or coal door which is labeled "Karr Range Co, Belleville, Ill." in raised chrome letters, ash drawer, and a full length warming compartment above. Excellent condition. The superb detail and remarkably fine state of preservation indicate the stove's likely production as a salesman's sample. Circa 1910.
