 A bit too expensive (!!!) but there are some nice pictures of it. I was also wondering what was the name of this Tappan 400 clone for a while.
According to the description, it's "Contempo".
"My Uncle, who is pictured above worked for O'keefe & Merritt Plant in Los Angeles and purchased this "Contempo" (only 500 made) for his wife. Very Very rare stove, in super great condition"

Those burners.. Are a Tappan design, they were great, their are no ports , just a slot around the top, the flame burns in kind of a sheet of flame..the top piece comes out easily and they are the easiest gas burners ever to clean, OK and M must have had a deal with Tappan. | ||

The name was OK&M west of the Mississloppi and Tappan to the East. | ||

This one is listed in NYC, were there still a few dealers on the east coast? I'm wondering if the same applied in Canada. There used to be many Tappan and Tappan-Gurney appliances in Quebec (but not much or even not at all after the late-1960s), but I've never seen OK&M here. How about the western provinces? | ||
