I moved into a house with a 1991 Buck 26 NC stove and can't find a manual for it online. Does anyone have one by chance?

Ps. I love this stove. At my previous house I installed a brand-new EPA Lopi Endeavor which I was extremely fond of. This seems like a very similar design minus the damper, and all brick no brittle fire board!
 
That model doesn't ring a bell. I recall there was a model 261. Would it be possible to post a picture or two of the stove?
 
Here's the name plate and a couple pictures. I can find parts on the web, just not a manual.

Thanks. That jogged the old brain cells. I haven't seen this stove for about 20 yrs. Sorry, I don't have the manual, but I am wondering if the model 261 evolved from this stove. That stove had the option top vent, or rear vent which made it a nice big hearth heater.
