Can't believe all the intricate casting work. Truly works of art. I don't think we'll ever see details like these again. Looking forward to the rest.

I know one thing for sure... If I had $4 or $5k to buy a parlor stove, id be buying one of these because I think many of these are very special stoves that just cant be found no matter how much money you had. do you see some of these inside photo's some of these appear to be brand new right out the box from 1890!!! you aint finding that at local stove shop

Not to usurp your thread dcrane, but I was at an old restored train station in Etowah, Tenn. for a fall ride into the mountains and these were setting there. One was for sale for $4000!
