I thought the same thing, Tom.  Correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't that an electric range??   OK&M did make mostly gas ranges, I know....

You're right! Maybe the seller thinks it's rare because it's electric and OK&M

Just curious, how does one know it's one of 500?

Those gas burners are very interesting. I've never seen gas stoves like that before. ROFL

By the way, A few months ago I saw this same stove for FREE on craigslist.

Didn't Tappen and OkM somehow merge?

Tappan purchased O'Keefe & Merritt of Los Angeles, CA in late 1950. They sold their products under the O'Keefe & Merritt brand in the West, and Tappan in the East.
