This is my first post, as I am not a wood burner currently unless you count 7 working fireplaces in my 1740's house. I do have a quite obscure question and I was hoping someone might be able to help me out.
I am particularly interested in antique stoves, as well as those made during the woodburning revitalization in the US starting in the 1970's One stove I have seen pictured and described in a few late 1970's publications was a beautiful interpretation of the classic Shaker style box stove made by Hinckley Foundry & Marine in New Hampshire.
While a few books have this stove featured, I have never seen an actual example, and have found absolutely nothing about the stove, or the company during numerous searches.
I would love to find this stove, but does anyone know if it actually existed aside from photos?
It looks very much like a typical Shaker box stove with the main body cast in one piece, and a very distinctive large ash lip and 3 wrought-iron legs. According to my sources, a heat-exchanger model was also made.
Again, I apologize for the bizarre question, but I would love to know more about this elusive 1970's stove.
Best Regards and thanks
