Fisher wood stoves were first created in Oregon by Bob Fisher in the mid-1970s. Fishers design utilized a new welding and sealing design which curtailed air leakage, which was a major problem for wood stoves on the market during that time. The first licensed Fisher wood stove was produced using the twenty-five steel shops in North America under the business name Fisher Stove International Organization. After he bought an A-Frame in the mountains, Bob discovered that heating with wood in the existing fireplace was very wasteful. Fisher wood stoves were a popular choice in the 1980s, since the oil prices skyrocketed and a lot of households turned to wood-burning alternatives. The most distinctive design element of a Fisher wood stove are the doors, because each units set was personally manufactured by Bob Fisher, while the stoves body was constructed by one of the twenty-five steel manufacturing companies. Real Fisher wood stoves have the name Fisher engraved on the front doors, and are made of heavy steel which was finished in brass, nickel or cast-iron. Bob Fisher designed the Fisher Stove in the late 1970s at Springfield, Oregon. And during the following years, Fisher Stoves became popular. Its very important to underline that the Fisher Stove pioneered safety standards at Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and Canadian Standard Association (CSA). The stoves, which were manufactured by Fisher prior to the 1980s, were installed using the building codes. They were required to be kept 36 inches away from combustible walls. One simple fact made Fisher much better than the competition. Bob Fisher discovered that the wide fireplaces that were so popular were quite wasteful. This happened because heating wood in these fireplaces didnt heat the room very efficiently. And to fix this, Fisher sealed up part of the fireplace and welded the iron in such a way that it left only a small six-inch opening for the chimney. As the result, this fireplace was able to heat an entire A-frame home. Came with our house and was installed in 1999. We rarely used it in over 5 years living here. In fantastic shape with slight surface rust from a plant pot. You have to carry it down 4 steps on the front porch, otherwise it is a fairly easy and level removal process.

For sale – a fully functional 1940s era General Electric stove. Both ovens have what I believe are original broiler pans. All 4 burners work, new drip pans, oven light works as shown. Range top light is missing, 32 bulb is available online but not in my stores so I haven’t seen that work. But if you need to do any repairs, the wiring schematic is still on the back! Chips in the enamel are shown on the bottom of the picture of the left hand burners. (2 very small black dots at the extreme bottom of the picture). Smaller pan drawer has some minor rust beginning. Side outlets work, I have not tried the time delay so I can’t vouch for that. I will even throw in the immaculate roasting pan (I think that’s what it is LOL) with adjustable sides that was in the pantry.
