Im new here and new to wood stoves. I just recently purchased my first home, and it has an old Fisher stove. Im assuming its the Grandma, but I could be wrong. It has no tags or any markings that I've been able to find. Id also like to know when it was built, and any tips or tricks on using it. Thanks

Looks like a late 70's Grandma Bear. How many fire bricks across the back?
It won't have a UL label if it was made before 1980 (I think).
There are some posts here that discuss the features that changed over the years that will help you date the stove. https://www.hearth.com/talk/threads/fisher-papa-mama-and-baby-bear-details-bear-series.86736/
Does it have a number written in weld under the ash shelf?
