No Mystery

The name is given in the listing, "Prosperity," a name with good connotations in the Great Depression.

The burner grates are beautifully designed, but I wonder where the burners are.

Oops, I missed that.
After a quick Google search, Prosperity was sold by Sears, and manufactured by?

Probably Roper/Kankakee.

Those burner grates are really interesting. I wonder why there's a big deep fryer basket sitting on top. lol

ProsperityWas the name used by Sears before WW2.

Im betting Roper built also.
