I have a B518-7 Imperial, Mine is in excellent condtion, the only thing wrong is the ash pan has burnt areas in it, I am just going to reline it, because its the orginal and dont want to replace it. This stove has had a very light life as a burner and probable used for decration more than anything. I am willing to sell it for the right price. If you want pic's let me know, and any info, I do know that the foundry went out of buisness in the early 1900's So all these stoves are over one hundred years old. [email protected] Chester
