Wood Stove Parts

[Skylark]

I have found several pieces of 1920's woodstoves such as legs, doors, etc. Is there any market for stuff like that out there? Are they worth taking home and reselling?

Skylark, an ID for specific stoves, it may sell in on ebay. Fancy embellishment would help. Otherwise, scrap iron brings $7 to $9 per hundred lbs. I picked up 1100 lbs over a years time, to sell with the copper and brass I pick up or find with a metal detector. Storage required!

My dad collects stove emblems, which are the usually fancy nameplates that you see on some of the fancier ones. There is a small market for these but not much money there. Scrap prices are way down...I think you'll find that you will be lucky to get $2-3/100 lb for steel right now.

Thanks for the help! I will check some of the doors I found next time I go digging and see if they have a fancy design or nameplate.
