Vintage gas stove value? Help

[blackattackthree]

We purchased a log cabin home that came with a Roberts & Mander Stove Co. Quality N0. A-57.
We had a home inspection and the inspector offered to buy the stove but I can not find any information on it including the age.
The stove works and is in good condition but is missing the handle that controls the stove heat.
Here are some pictures any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Mike Kimball

The Roberts and Mander stove company operated out of Hatboro PA from around 1918 to 1950. I think your stove was manufactured in that time period. On page 34 of the Roberts and Mander stove company catalog the “Quality Half Enamel Single Oven Range with White enamel high shelf” looks strikingly similar to your stove, see attached photo. You can download the entire Roberts and Mander 1926 catalog here:

The only major difference between your stove and the 1926 model is the porcelain skirt around the burner and handles. I think your stove is a later model, maybe even as late as the 1940s.

OK, we have a time frame, now price… I believe based on the following sale, your 1920s-1940s Roberts and Mander stove is worth between $200-400 dollars:
