 Was reading through an October 1958 issue of House&Home magazine and found this advertisement for a 54" wide combination cooking/clean-up unit. Has anyone ever seen or owned one of these? Certainly an odd-bird-unit. Were Youngstown and Tappan connected in other ways? Or was this just an attempt to try something new and different and generate home sales?
Please pardon the quality of the pictures, they were taken with my cell phone. If you can't make out small text let me know and I'll supplement this post.

My parents bought a house in 1978 built in 1960 with that dishwasher (yes, it was 30 inches wide) and a Youngstown-Tappan electric cooktop that was about 33 inches wide...not identical to that cooktop because the controls were in a line at the rear. They were rotary knobs with 7 fixed heats (old house had a pushbutton GE so thought we were "movin on up" with 2 more speeds. The built-in oven had been replaced 5 or so years before with a Hotpoint self-cleaning oven.
