Amherst Foundry?

Mentioned here & there on these forums about the dinosaur at our cottage. Well, we're here this weekend and it's keeping us warm. So thought I'd post a couple pics. Anyone have or see one of these before? Family heirloom, with some roots in Amherst.

That was pretty interesting. I was born in Amherst and drive through it to get to the cottage. Thanks for the link!

That's a good looking stove. Watch that crack.

The one at the handle? Yes, watch it closely. My late uncle had the stove rehabbed before it got installed, when he built the new cottage. There's an interior repair on that, still seems solid. It could maybe use some paint in places. There is no way I would use it full time for 'real' heating but it helps get us a few extra weekends out there. And just sits there looking good the rest of the time.
