Most restaurants used those for keeping bread/ rolls hot.
I used to use the second drawer to keep soup cups or coffee cups hot in the cold weather. Being Copper, it must have been used out in a visible dining room location for the wait staff. I would say it's from the late 50s to late 60s. Those are bakelite handle drawer pulls. These units seem to last forever.They rarely malfunction. | ||

Apparently still made for commercial use
While the manuals and other literature for the above item state it was for domestic kitchens, Toastmaster still makes a commercial version, or did anyway.
www.toastmastercorp.com/product-c... Lacking one of these my mother and scores of others one assumes kept food warm by using her oven set to "keep warm". Problem was, and this is outlined in the owner's manual for the copper Toastmaster, things tended to dry out if left too long. Far to many times Father came home to find that his dinner waiting in oven was a dehydrated mass. *LOL* This was of course in the days before microwave ovens became common. Now everyone just reheats in that appliance. | ||
