Thought it would be nice to introduce myself- My name is david and im from cedar falls iowa- Im a Ct Tech at our local hospital- have two daughter in college- Im a true believer of the constitution especially the 1st and 2nd amendment- im a antique novice- enjoy collecting guns and coins- have a great river rock stone fireplace with a lot of wood in the garage for the long cold iowa winter- enjoy estate sale and auction and seem to bring home a wood burning stove occasionally where my friends scoop them up for the garage or shed heat.
I think I will enjoy this forum and hope to gain new friends around the country. Know to the meat of this post. came across a very ornate rectangle parlor stove called a "Brilliant N.5 " parlor stove from the Shear and Packard Co- it has two mica window that open up- two lower doors that slide open in the front and a side door that also can open a decorated urn on top
- in great condition that needed just a little cleaning. Any help- knowledge- history- date- or value would be greatly appreciated. Will read and try to post pictures soon. I come across a lot of different stoves here in iowa especially on farms also so I think I can also help find things you might need.
