"Tiny Tot and Buddy" Charcoal Briquet Stove and Ford Charcoal Briquets, 1936
Add to SetSummary
Ford Motor Company's charcoal briquettes were good for more than just backyard cookouts. The company noted that charcoal's steady, even warmth was ideal for small heat stoves like the one shown in this photograph. Because charcoal briquettes produced no sparks, they were safe to use in confined spaces like milk wagons, travel trailers and yachts.
