Oh, Spark, ya kill me.Īpril – re: dishwasher….if you aren’t an absolute purist: old dishwashers are pretty hard to come by, they just didn’t seem to hang on like refrigerators and stoves, and I think it is mostly because they just don’t clean as well (generalizing here) as the newer technology so they went to the landfill. I probably shouldn’t think it’s so funny that the SPARK stove factory burned down in the 1940’s, but I can’t help it. Wedgewood and O’Keefe and Merritt were made here, as were Spark. Kitty likes it too, of course.įYI- Oakland CA is an epicenter of old stoves. Now that we are going totally 20’s-30’s, I have come to love the long legs on our stove, hoosier, etc. It’s a good thing hubs had to do a total break down and restore, because that was the only way it was going to get in the house. Our 1930’s Spark stove is now serving well. I’ve been trying to get someone interested in it for over a year!…it’s in Oakland. There is one just like it for $50 at our swell salvage place, sans the well cooker. The flair always makes my heart go thumpa thumpa, but that Tappan Fab 400 is neat-o. TTT-I can see why you’re in love with your Tappan-it’s big, it’s purty, it lights! ….even better than a princess phone. LOVE seeing everyone’s appliances and their swell pots, dishtowels, etc. Crosley held the patent on that feature from 1933 to 1950 and then it ran out so everyone started adding door shelves in 1951….When I find out more on both the stove and the fridge I will let you know!!! Hope this helps some…… I do know for sure that your fridge can be no older than 1951 because it has shelves in the door. As for the fridge (in pictures 98 and 102) I am going to have to do some more research but I do believe it is from 1952 or there about. From this I deduce that either your stove is a step or two down the 1954 model line than the one in picture 25 or it was made in 1953 or 1955. Your stove (in picture 19) has the same door handles and dial knobs but the knobs are placed differently on your control panel and where the burners on the stove in picture 25 are grouped on the left side of the top with a work space on the right, your stove has them on both sides with the workspace in the middle. I have seen an ad for the Philco Range in picture 25 that dates that stove to 1954.

Above: A photo that came in early from reader JoAnn. Do you think that after all this time I ended up right where I should be - writing this blog? I think so! Last uploader, when readers shared 234 pictures of their vintage small appliances, readers also asked to share their vintage large appliances. Hey, even then, 17 years ago (gulp) I was all about the where-to-get-the-stuff and where-to-get-it-restored. My story was about why folks were starting to treasure vintage stoves - and where you could buy them. My neighbor Dave had salvaged a 1940s Magic Chef from his grandmother’s barn and sent it to Macy’s Texas Stove Works for restoration. The display inside the refrigerator allows comfortable control, setting of the economical Eco Mode, which reduces electricity consumption, or temperature control.Vintage stoves will always have a very special place in my heart, because the first story I ever wrote about homes was about vintage stoves, for the (now defunct) Ann Arbor News in 1995. Even with the door open in this way, you can comfortably slide out the drawers in the refrigerator and freezer. The zero opening of the door allows the door not to swing when opened at an angle of 90 °, so you can place the refrigerator as close to the wall as possible.
The MaxiFresh carbon filter allows you to store food in an odorless and bacteria-free environment, together with the antibacterial handle and seal contribute to increasing the hygiene of food storage The FreshStore and Meat & Fish compartments enable the correct storage of fruit and vegetables, meat and fish, which, thanks to the properties of these compartments, will stay fresh longer. Thanks to FrostProtection, the freezer of this combination will work reliably down to -15 ° C ambient temperature. Double NoFrost are two independent circuits, two independent fans. The PCD3241FNF combined refrigerator is a device with Double NoFrost technology, which significantly changes the quality of fresh food storage, because, unlike NoFrost technology, it does not dry food.
