I need Help Identifying...

[Sgaul2015]

This stove came out of a garage in an old farm house in IL and I am trying to find out any history that I can. I would really love to restore this. The only markings that i can find are; Orbon Stove Co. Belleville, IL 42 M it also has Circulator on the front. It does have all the parts (the stand, doors etc) I just took them off to move it.

Any help or a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. I have researched the company and have googled everything that I can, with no luck.

Thank you so much for your time and help,
Stacy

The search feature at top right using Orbon as search criteria shows a few threads of results.

The most company history is here on page 46;

Google Images finds a good picture of a restored Circulator with two tone on icollector here;

Notice they call it a wood heater, it is primarily coal.

Okay, your stove model was sold in the 1926. I came with a peaked top that fills the opening on stove. They sold a lot of them in Anaconda, Montana that year. Hundreds.
I have an Orbon Tileona. A very ornate cabinet stove. I can't find others. The Orbon company is still in business. It's called Peerless. Belleville, Illinois.
