LIVE OAK Cast Iron Stove

Image submitted by: Rick Oshea
We have a reader request to help provide information about this LIVE OAK cast iron stove.

Can anyone provide any type of information as to era, foundry, etc.? 

Submitted notes/comments:
Appears to be a No. 12


Similar to Gem Oak No.11  (Bridge Beach & Co, St Louis, Missouri USA)
Era could be 1900-1910

Looks like some top parts are missing?

Other versions with Gem Oak such as No. 210 were produced by Detroit Stove Works
