Tom
I'm assuming the stove in the 1947 film is an American one, the location it was done is near Stillwater Cove in Pebble Beach.
filmmonterey.org/film/the-ghost-... I added some pictures of the stove. | ||

Thank you Louis. I have never seen a stove that looked like that. I did not stop to think that it was a domestic stove. | ||

You have to look fast because this is Pinterest and they will throw you out if you do not log in, but I found some Victorian stoves that begin to resemble the stove in the kitchen of the captain's cottage. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Tomturbomatic's LINK | ||

I got the picture, here it is.
They might have imported that stove from the UK, but that would have been a lot of trouble I think.

Victorian Stove
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir stove is typical of mid 19th century domestic stoves. They look odd to Americans because they typically were built to fit pre-existing "walk in" kitchen fireplaces from the 18th century.
The BBC did a show a while back in which a neglected Victorian farm house was restored for occupancy, including the stove. I have attached the Youtube address and the point of interest starts at 26 minutes. I'm sure that at some point this kind of stove had a water back (a hot-water generator tank)as American stoves did, but I can't say for this model. CLICK HERE TO GO TO scoots's LINK | ||
