My stove is a 1941 Chambers Model 12B, purchased by my grandfather in May 1941. I bought the house I live in from my Grandmother about 20 years ago, have gutted and modernized the house, but kept the stove for some odd sentimental reason...another reason for keeping it is that the packing slip notes that the stove weighs almost 500#

Gramps paid $184.50 for the stove in 1941. I have rebuilt all the valves, and had some of the cabinet re porcelained.. Its a little incongruous seeing an antique stove in the middle of a kitchen where all the other appliances are modern high tech pieces.
