    I would like to know if anyone can help me figure out when this stove was made, and an approx value. I cannot find this model any where online ? Details appreciated. 1336754159-3_burner_top_opt.jpg 1336754170-Stove_label_opt.jpg 1336754178-stove_tank_opt.jpg

    There's actually a Preway no.1 in the reference gallery, and even if it's not exactly the same as yours, it might be worth having a look.

    Probably late 1920s to 1930s. I bet that thing weighs a ton. I know I would bid on it. Nice one.

    It will be on eBay shortly I'll bet, like some of the newbies we get that pop in for a post or two.

    Beautiful piece! The P/W cast iron grates are wonderful.
