These are pics the seller emailed me. I think that's the one she said
looked like Lincoln's.

I just got it out of the truck and took a wire brush to the insides
and got all the soot out. Once I get it fired up, we'll see if I did
proud. But it was working fine at the previous owners house.

Nice thing about this is you take off the waring rack. Then all the
eyes, water res. and then the stove lifts off the base. It was easy
for two people to lift any of the parts. I want to take it out on the
porch in the summer for canning, etc, so that is already a nice
feature.

Getting the insulated metal chimney in is going to cost and be a bear,
but this is a major step towards cooking independence here.
