Hey BuckleBoy, I was reading your post on how to clean off iron relics and was curious about that stove leg you showed as an example. Today I found a an old cook stove, in pieces unfortunately but spent a good deal of time finding most of the parts, almost had the whole stove top put together. It was made by A. Geisel MFG Co. of St. Louis and stamped: No. 126 on the stove top. I don't know anything about old cook stoves, couldn't find a pic on-line of ANY Geisel cook stoves. Did find some info that the Andrew Geisel started the company up in 1852 but not much else. I had walked quite a ways to the site and there was no way I could carry it all with me so left it where I found it and only brought back a piece with the company name stamped on it.....your thoughts?
