Cast iron gas cooker plate
« on: August 15, 2014, 11:51:40 am »
Dear experts,

Today I found this iron plate in Belgium. I think it's from a gas cooker due the holes. The figures appeal to me.
There is a devil? in the water who pushes on the bridge, where three goats are jumping...
The size is approximately 60 cm x 45 cm.
Does anyone know more about this?

Thank you in advance!

This helps with the storyline it depicts. Three Billy Goats Gruff http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Billy_Goats_Gruff

Looks like it's the side to this stove, missing the ventilation covers. It's made by Dovre, from Norway. Not sure about a date, but there are many on the web now that you have this info.  ;)

Does this warrant my first good "Karma" tag?  :)
