Papa Bear With a 2 Piece Top?

[Todd67]

This one is an oddball to me. The rear plate is one piece, and the front piece & bend are another piece. The draft caps only have 3 fins, and the spring handle is the newer type found on Fisher stoves. The door gasket appears to be too thick for the door. I'm not buying this stove, but I found it interesting.

Enumclaw Washington, in case anyone is interested

I've seen a few of those tops as they were transitioning to the one piece top.

What about those 3 fin draft caps? Ever seen them before?

Yep, most in Washington state. Mama, Baby and Papa below






I missed a strange green one on eBay many years ago when I was buying them up for my collection. I believe it was a lefty Mama in Mass. with 2 fin or 3 fin caps. I thought it was strange on the East Coast. I know I saved a pic of it, must be in an old hard drive here I'm transferring files.

Very cool! I didn't know if they were original Fisher parts or not.

They were Baxter's design.
