Hi..any information on this? I've read that many made in Tawain are knock offs. Found it in the barn on my property. Thanks!

It looks like an old Portland Stove Foundry design. By the looks of the rear wall casting, its best used for display or on a non flammable floor as it looks like there is some sort of flaw in the casting

I've seen worse. At least it doesn't appear to have had a lot of use. Oh what the hell? Hook it up. Run it, see how it goes.
