I found the information on www.The Ironrite Ironer Company but I have yet to find my model and patent # anywhere. Mine is named, "The Ironrite" Model 55 Ironer Machine #Z10627 Manufactured under patents #'s US 1,848,499-Canada 262,846 "The Ironrite Ironer Company Detroit Michigan USA Normal Capacity Volts 115 and Amps 14.1. That's all I have. I thaught it would be enough but I just can't seem to find my Model 55 anywhere. Could you please try for me and let me know the estimated price on it. Sorry I do not have a picture but it is on all the web sites. You'll see it but the only difference is, the sides, they are panels, mine are metal legs. That's about the only difference. The closest picture is at www.Ironrite Ironers-Shaker Brook Farm Antique Pressing Iron & Laundry Stove Museum. Thank You and Good Luck, Sincerely, Roberta
