Lakeside Foundry belonged to Montgomery Ward, and was in operation from c. 1904 until c. 1920; however, other manufacturers, such as Estate Stove Co. and Rymer also made stoves for the mail order company. There were many different models of Windsor stove made at different periods in the company history, but the Lakeside brand may have been discontinued after the foundry in Erie, PA, closed in 1920.
The H. Wetter Stove Co. was originally based out of Memphis, Tennessee as early as 1883. Around 1902, it purchased the old Perry Stove Works in South Pittsburg, Tennessee and moved it's foundry work there where it operated until around 1931 when the SP foundry was reorganized into the United States Stove Company after labor disputes and a deadly shooting in December 1927 were more than H. Wetter could take. The U. S. S. Company still operate a mill at Richard City, an annex of South Pittsburg, and nearby Bridgeport, Alabama. The old foundry at South Pittsburg was razed in 2003.

Lakeside Foundry of Chicago belonged to Montgomery Ward & Co., and was in operation from c. 1904 until c. 1920; however, other manufacturers, such as Estate Stove Co. and Rymer also made stoves for the mail order company. There were many different models of Windsor stove made at different periods in the company history, but the Lakeside brand may have been discontinued when the Erie, PA, foundry was sold c. 1920. There were no comps on the Bellwood Windsor available; the only one listed was unsold at auction.
The King Hardware of Sheffield AL. bought out The Lizzie Loman stove works in 1905. The foundry was renamed King Stove & Range Co. In 1917 The Martin brothers bought out King Range & Stove Co and became Martin Stove Co. It may be that the Martin Stove Co still produced stoves under the name of King Stove up until the 1970's Not knowing the size of the stove or seeing a picture of it, it is hard to put a price on it. The price may range from $100 to over $1,000. I got this information from The Griswold & Cast Iron Cookware Association

what is a jacob art #14 potbelly stove worth
I have a ranger cast iron stove. I believe the company was Southern Co-Operative Foundry Rome GA. I read where the company went out of business in1971. I also found a posting on e-bay that closed bidding in August this year. The only bid was $99 and did not meet the the reserve.
The Southern Co-operative Foundry was in Rome, Georgia. It was incorporated in 1898 and closed in 1971. It manufactured a full line of cook stoves and wood or coal burning stoves as well as grates and kettles. I have two of their old catalogs from the 1908-1912 era. Their cook stoves were the "Dixie" line. Their products were very well cast and are collectible today.
