I think you'd be pretty close with that price.  Are you putting it up for bids or selling outright?  It appears older than the second link which went for $12+ and more similar to the double which went for  $51

I will put it up locally to see if I can avoid shipping and then go the auction route on EBay if I don't get any interest.

Thanks for the help so far everyone.  Does $20 sound like a decent price to ask?

Explain the house and the people who lived there please? I have a reason. Is this a jewish community?

It was a local neighborhood market store and there is no reason to believe they were Jewish.  They had a library that we also cleaned out and there were a few Christianity books but nothing Jewish-related that I saw.

Looks like an old camp stove...  Most old ones (vintage/antique) go for around $25 on eBay. 

Might be a bit big for that?

I wish I had more info on it but what you see is pretty much what you get.  I looked all over it for some sort of marking but don't see one other than the glass "18".

Wish I knew more...  I'm not an antique guy...  Just didn't want to throw it away in case it was worth something.

It's metal...  the glass piece says "18" on it, which I'm guessing means 1918.

Found this in an old house I was cleaning out and figured I should bring it home instead of throwing it in the trash.  Ya never know.  Anyway, any info would be appreciated.
