I have a soft spot for this model, which appears in one of my favorite movies, Alfred Hitchcock's Rope (1948). This example has the blue pebbled-glass freezer door intact, which is to the good, because it's unobtainium, and often broken and missing.
While these boxes don't look especially impressive today, they were luxury merchandise back in their day, due to their silent operation. If I were rich (c'mon, Powerball!), I'd love to have one, perfectly restored. |
