Not much about this is in good condition. It has been well used and somewhat abused. I recently seen one like this, in the same ilk, on an online auction site, for a whopping $145.00, which brings me to the fact that I bought this at a yard sale for 25 cents. Not that I think mine is worth any more than a quarter, but I liked the fact that the brand name of the range is unknown to me and the graphics can still be read.

I will give you 50 cents for it!
It has some age and patina to it, but the main graphics are very displayable. I think it still has some value but certainly not the $145
Thanks for the look-see everyone, oh, and chevy59, my Wife has just raised the price to where it's even out of my range.
I don't know if I would like it as much if it was in "good" condition. The patina of life suits this piece very well, I love it!!Mich
I will give you a gadzillion for it!! Mich
Pardon me, I should say it is WORTH a gadzillion dollars, in my fact free opinion!! Mich
beautiful and i love it:)
Thank you very much BELLIN68. Sooty and burnt, bent and discolored but I love it also!
