I do not have a photo at this time, but will submit upon request. This wood burning kitchen stove is in excellent condition. It is cast iron, with porcelain overlays on the oven door, fire box door, water reservior, sides, legs, and and "back spash." It is a six burner, with all burner covers intact. The oven can be thermostatically controlled (still works), and has the original oven rack. There is a copper water reservoir with spigot on the right side of the oven, with the firebox located to the left of the oven. The back splash holds double warming doors. The pull handles on all doors are original. The color is cream with green accents. Accessories are included, which are also of the Montgomery Wards line, and consists of coffee pot, sifter, pastry cutter, metal cooking pan with lid, and metal mixing bowls. All were made, to coordinate with the stove colors.
