thanks,,,, that is right where I was thinking.

appreciate the info very much.

These stoves were complete and in very good condition for their age. Most were from 1860ties, Sears, and most from Ohio. Sold at auction in range from $160-$170.00 most expensive was a little more ornate sold for $190.00. Some were sold to antique dealer’s and home owners. I asked a antique dealer what they usually sell for and he said plain cast iron $250.00-$300.00 . Ones more ornate and with nickel trim sell for a little more and used mostly for decoration because of Insurance purposes.

thank you, I would appreciate it.

There is a man selling all of his antique stoves this weekend(around 20) including some made by Sears. I am going so I may have some more info then as to what they sell for etc.
