I HAVE THIS ANTIQUE 1876 CULTER & PROCTOR WOOD STOVE MADE IN PEORIA ILL. THIS IS THE BEST LOOKING STOVE I EVER OWNED I HAVE OWNED A BUNCH OVER THE YEARS , THE STOVE WAS LEFT JUST LIKE I GOT IT READY TO RESTORE OR LEAVE IT LIKE IT IS, IF YOU LOOK AT SOME OF MY OTHER ITEMS I HAVE OR HAD I LIKE TO RESTORE THEM BUT THIS STOVE LOOKS SO NICE LIKE IT IS, I HAD TO LEAVE IT ALONE. The size is 38”L 19”W 38”H to top of finial not sure of weight but heavy. LOOKING IT OVER THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS WRONG WITH THIS STOVE TILES NEED REPLACED I THOUGHT I SEEN A SMALL CRACK ON THE BACK BUT I CANT FIND IT NOW, I THINK IT COULD HAVE BEEN A FOUNDRY MARK , REMEMBER THIS STOVE IS 140 YEARS OLD, I THINK THERE WAS A CAST IRON LIP BY THE FRONT DOOR I SEE 2 HOLES THERE , LOOK CLOSE TO THE PICTURES ALSO A COUPLE FOUNDRY MARKS LOOK LIKE CRACKS OR CHIPS BUT THEY ARE JUST FOUNDRY MARKS.
