Thanks, norgeway, for the info. Where would the CP label be on stoves from this time? BTW, how'd you learn so much about stoves? It's great to talk to people who are so knowledgeable - I've learned so much.
Thanks!

I spoke to the seller and got the measurements and it will fit in my space. Yay!
I am going to see the stove tomorrow and will double...
Hi all,
First I wanted to thank you all for giving me advice about the two 1950's gas ranges I was considering in an earlier thread (the Hardwick and the Dixie). I appreciate the encouragement and offers of technical advice (norgeway). Unfortunately, Massachusetts law is a PITA. Not only can...
