I have one just like it . The nickle plating was all gone on mine when I bought it . I painted the trim to match the other stove in my kitchen . Years ago I showed a picture of my stove to a couple of antique dealers and they valued my stove at around $2,000.00 at that time . With yours still having the nickle plating I would say that yours has a bit more value than mine .
We had one of these in a house that we rented when I was first married. We used it to cook and heat and I loved it. I cooked a turkey in it when an ice storm blew out the electricity. They are classic. I see them around from time to time but don't know the value.
i just googled it and hit images. It's a popular stove, I need to find one for my kitchen!
I came across a BRIDGE BEACH & CO. of SAINT LOUIS No.86-18 .It is a combo of wood,coal, and a steel range as well on the front left side it says MOHAWK also .Im having a hard time figuring out how old this stove is. Any information would be very appreciated thank you.
crestonian my stove date is on left side a long with other infirmadtion hope u can fine the date
Check out this link, it is a Canadian stove restoration/appraisal site, bur there are links to American sites as well.

thanks alot ill try that
thanks for the link I still couldnt find the info I needed but your help was well appreciated.
Did you contact one of the appraisers on the site, for the little bit they charge it is well worth the money. I just used the services of the Canadian expert & it was money well spent. They have amassed a large collection of literature that is not available on line.
Did you find out anymore information on your stove. I just posted one like it we found in an old outbuilding on some property we bought. You can see my post and photo's on here. Ours is a Home Comfort also.
thanks for the info i found the date on my comfort home stove so happy .. what are they worth anyone know
