The seller claims this is the exact same year and model as in the Bewitched kitchen. 1959 seems a bit old, but I'm not a Flair expert. Link has more pix.

I always thought the Flair was rolled out in 1960, but I suppose someone could have purchased one in fall of 1959. After all, Frigidaire was part of GM back then... LOL
But as to the Bewitched comparason, I thought the Stevens kitchen boasted all Sunny Yellow appliances, no?
I think this is a common sales tactic on craigslist especially for Flair ranges! At least they weren't claiming "First electric range ever made" or "1943 model".... |

We're working on a top-of-the line in Sunny Yellow from '60 and it has several parts with 1959 date codes, and one with '58 (the Telechron). It also doesn't quite line up with any of the service manuals on several really important points such as the drawer mechanism. The chains are run a bit differently. |

It's close to the Bewitched range, but not exactly the same model. Splitting hairs, but that's what we do with appliances here... lol

First season had all 1964 Custom Imperial models, which were upgraded next season to 1965 "J" models. The Flair in the original post was from 1960. Notice how they taped over the Frigidaire name..... |
