A Set of Club! She got with Green Stamps to match the avocado appliances, which she almost NEVER used!They hung on a pegboard over the stove.

Betty Crocker. Mixer bowls, her daughter who passed away several years ago had a General Mills mixer which died years ago, so now I have spare bowls.

Oh yes! She lived by herself up until a few months before she died, this month she would have been 102! | ||

Neat Fan They are like the fans they used in banks,so they wouldnt blow papers away.Great for a desk.They are cute it should have oil ports on it.Keepem oiled and they last forever.Right now Im sitting in front of a 1914 pullman green GE fan that still runs like a top,but I keep those oil cups full of oil. Good luck! | ||

 My grandparents purchased the same model fridge about 1974 in harvest gold, and my sister is still using it as her daily driver. We also have the Cycla-Matic version in white as our basement fridge. They are so quiet you almost have to put your ear up to them to hear them running. Is yours a frost-free model? Ours aren't. Did you get her pancake griddle too? | ||

Fridge.. It IS a frost proof model...I would give ANYTHING if it was just a Cycla Matic, I despise Frost Free fridges overall, I have never seen one yet that would keep food as well as a standard model! | ||

We wouldn't trade our Cycla-Matics for the world! They're very easy on the electric bill too. Are you going to initiate the Club cookware, or is it only going to be for display purposes at your house also?

Nice saves, Hans! Can't wait to hear more about the stove as you start using it, will you put it in the kitchen in place of the new Hotpoint?
You could put a different defrost timer in the refrigerator and save a little money on the constant cycling of the heaters and cooling - that might make it more bearable on the power bill but some things are just worth paying for regardless! Enjoy these bits of your past everyday! | ||
