For your offerding consideration is an antique/vintage HUMPHREY RADIANTFIRE Heater #31!!! This home heater/stove is from the 20\'s and has a decorative art deco look. Heavy metal/cast iron? I saw an ad from the early 20\'s for these stoves and the only way these could be obtained was from the General Gas Co. The ad stated this adds a warm, friendly, personality to any home. Has a mellow glow and irresistable invitation to settle down in that comfy arm chair and light up the briar pipe. Experience the deep contentment of true fireplace magic. Burns natural or manufactured gas without a suggestion of odor. The heat is projected by radiant rays straight out into the room and not up the chimney. I moved into a house built in 1903 and this was in the formal dining room fireplace and was what they used to heat the room back in the day. The stove is in overall great condition of it\'s age and has been sitting in my fireplace for 10+ years and was well taken care of. The front is beautiful without dents and ornate decorative brass tops to either side and down the sides and the base. These would probably shine up nice with a good metal cleaner. The front grid lifts up to get to the burners and has the original ceramic back and you can see the holes where the gas comes out. This also has the stand up ceramic/clay type burners. Only one of them appears to be broken. The paint is in great condition to the front but the back has some superficial surface rust noted and the stove could use a good overall cleaning to bring back to it\'s original luster. There is also a sticker on the side that says Testing laboratory approved and the Humphrey Radiantfire brass tag on the front bottom. There is sturdy free standing legs to the base and, but does not have the original pipe coming from the stove that is attached to the turn knob to adjust the flame. This stove is in working condition and or if you have an older home could be placed in your fire place for period decorative purposes. Measures 19 1/4\" across the top. 23\" across the bottom at the widest width. 8\" in width on the sides and approximately 21\" in height. These are RARE and hard to find in this condition. If you have any questions please ask. I will also offer local pick up which would be much better and save on shipping! The stove is quite heavy. Thank you so much for looking! I will be listing a variety of vintage items so please see my present and future listings!
