Hello. I recently nabbed this old stove from a barn on the family ranch. I am going to refurbish it to heat our small bunkhouse/guest house. I was trying to find more information on it, but I'm not having much luck with Google searches. I've tried things like "favorite stoves and ranges model 215"....etc. But I'm not finding any pictures that match. I have the nickel base for it as well as the two nickel decorative pieces that flank the door, and the top insert. Any help would be appreciated. Thx

Looks like Favorite Stove & Range was out of Piqua Ohio and in business from 1889 to 1935. Judging by the looks I would guess this is a later model. The earlier model parlor stoves were quite ornate.
