Sobre este artículo
Boston: J. G. Torrey, printer, 1838. Broadside. Folio. 400 x 275 mm. (15 3/4 x 11 inches). Text printed within an ornamental "greek key" border. Folded, with a printed strip of text with a change of address pasted beneath the title. Attractive and apparently rare broadside which advertises the manufacture and sale by H. & F. Simpson of a new line of air-tight stoves invented by Dr. Isaac Orr. The business of supplying safe and efficient home heating and cooking products was one of the most competitive markets in the growing urban centers of the northeast. Dr. Orr's invention, was considered one of the most reliable and safe stoves produced in the 1830's and 1840's. His design and Simpson's manufacture of the air-tight stove for burning coal was considered "a good article" and won a Diploma of Merit by the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanics Association in 1844. The same year Simpson's Improved Cooking Range won a Silver Medal and called a "superior article." H & F. Simpson Air-Tight Stove was in general use through New England and New York State throughout the 19th century. Not in Romaine. Not cited in OCLC. Fourth Exhibition and Fairs of the Massachusetts Charitable Mechanic Association, Boston, 1844, p. 47, No 905. For details about Dr. Orr and H. & F. Simpson see Howell Harris's blog post "The American Kitchen Rare from its Origin through the Civil War" at https://stovehistory.blogspot.com/search?q=american+kitchen+range (365).
