Hi, I recently purchased a home with 2 vintage stoves. (One it the kitchen and a much older one in the basement). I was wondering if I could get some help with if they have any resale value to sell as I do not need them.
The first is a Dickson 99L in white. This was found in the basement and am unsure if it works. It was not hooked up but appears to be in great condition and even had the paper cooking guide still in a drawer.
The second is a Frigidaire RT-701 in Stratford Yellow. This works although 2 burners do not, I am told. I’m not sure how difficult that would be to repair or how much that would hurt the value.

Hi Nicole,
I believe The Early Foundry Company in Dickson PA is still in operation (not positive). The stove is named Dickson which is the name of the city the company is located. The stove may be from around 1937, I tried to enlarge the picture to see the serial number but could not read it. I don’t want to give you a suggest price because I really can’t tell much about the stove by a picture. Try doing a search with the serial # and Dickson stove. I do know of one that sold in 2011 for $1625. I would suggest that before you sell it do more research. If you can give me more information I will try to find out more.
I would estimate your Frigidaire RT-701 to be worth $175 to $250. I believe this to be from the 1950’s.
Below is one that sold in the past:

Your Dickson may be worth more,
Thanks,
