Off Topic Post--Refrigerator Identification

[HollyL77]

Sorry for the off-topic post, but I know I've seen a few fridge posts now and then. Now that we have a Chambers stove, naturally we need a fridge, too. I found this one on ebay, looks good, but I'm not sure if it is really from the 50s. Are there any fridge experts on this site who might know the year this model was made?

I know nothing about refrigerators. But it
certainly appears to be a 50's. If you like it
and it suits go for it.

I'm not a Refer-man, but I would guess 55 to 59. Earlier appliances had round corners and Pink seems to have shown up in 55 and later.

It is a late 50's model, looks to be in great condition with only one shelf missing [upper most shelf, supports visible]. these old fridges work incredibly well and do not dehydrate foods as rapidly as modern ones do. it is difficult to determine from a photo what the finish actually is but many were porcelian which ofcourse is killer. since the installation of our vintage fridge, our electrical bills have been lowered by 11 dollars a month, food keeps far longer and seems fresher, the machine itself runs nearly silently and of course, the beauty of the thing is great. prices are rising qucikly on these guys...anything less than 400 dollars seems to be a good deal.

Wow, that's a beauty!! Looks to be in super nice shape. It would look positively regal next to your Chambers. [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
