Don't know anything about wood burning stoves but found this at a flea market and bought it because it seemed to be in good shape. Looks similar to pictures we have seen of Fisher but there are no markings. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

It has the same handles as my 40 year old American Eagle wood stone, which is great and is in constant use. Blacken the finished yours will look great.
 
No doubt a Fisher (or Frontier) clone that has had the legs cut down to fit under a hearth.
The legs must be 6 inch minimum. (NFPA building standard for calculating floor protection)
Looks to have original EZ-Spin dampers.
Spare a restorer the grief by keeping stove black away from it. Only high temp paint on steel plate stoves. No primer necessary unless used outside.
Stove black is also water permeable that covers rust, it doesn't prevent it.

Wire brush the inside of doors to find any foundry markings.
