Description

I recently bough an antique cast iron fireplace back/fireback at a yard sale. I was sure it was an antique until I discovered the word/name "Stern" in the lower left corner. Now I am not sure if it is an antique or a reproduction. I would like to know which it is and how much it is worth.
