No doubt about it Nelson, you sure get the cream and the price was pretty good too. That is one nice CO and I reckon you're right in saying it is a Billmans Furphy, that square under the lid handle is one give-away, 90% of Billmans ovens have it, it's part of their casting process while few others do it that way.

I suppose this now means you don't want to trade my 14"or 15" Furphy's ? LOL.
