Question
You were the only one out of the list that came close to being able to help me.
I have an American Beauty No. 66A clothing Iron.
This is an antique, but I need to know what date it was made from and if it has any value. Thank-you very much

Answer
I have seen several clothig irons manufactured by American Beauty, but not with 66A. If you look on Ebay, you will see pictures. You might be able to spot one like yours. If your iron is electric it is probably worth between $10 to $25 depending on the condition. If it is kerosine powered it is worth $50 to $75.

Thanks
