Old Burnham boiler

I got to work on a really old Burnham today. Anyone remember one of these? It is a Burnham steam boiler L-1 series, number 95. Originally, a coal fired unit, it had been retro-fitted with a Gilbert and Barker oil burner at some point in time. If I get a chance to go back I want to take pictures. I love checking out old steam systems. This one looked pretty much intact with very little changes. It also has an old aquastat on the side that has a patent date of 1925 and it still works. Pretty neat.
