I've attempted to find information about this stove, but the only thing I can find is that it was made by the Beach Foundry Limited. Just below the oven door is a plate that says "C-401". I've looked all over and through the stove and there are no other marking's or plates (with ANY info) attached or stamped in. That's it !! Does anyone know about Gas Stoves of this era? The folks (Restorer's) that I've called can't seem to find anything about it. I would love to know the history of this piece, and would like to know it's value. The only thing that I can see that is missing would be (one) oven rack. The stove IS operational and has been hooked up. Any thoughts - information?

Old stoves are one of the things I'd love to collect if I had an infinite amount of space. Very cool!
