The range may be usable, it is an odd 36" wide size [ this size was made by GE for people upgrading from gas ranges ], the refrigerator is another story, it is missing the door seal for starters and the blue appears to be a repaint job as the blue color should extend to the plastic breaker strips.
And along with the other missing parts Ralph mentioned the ref is not worth much. I have seen two door GE refs in cadet blue, however GE did not make this color long, maybe only 2 or 3 years, someone else probably knows how long, calling Pat C in Va.

I'm wondering if Cadet Blue lasted slightly into the '57 model year, as it seems like I remember seeing the newer squared-off style in that color at some time. Found an image posted by Bajaespuma for the washer & dryer. See link. CLICK HERE TO GO TO CircleW's LINK This post was last edited 07/30/2018 at 18:22 |

I suppose anything is possible but I don't recall ever seeing the new straight line design 57 GE range or fridge in Cadet blue. See link to AW thread discussing appliance color timeline.

If someone (perhaps Lawrence "Pulltostart") has the parts lists for the '57 model ranges or refrigerators, they can see if Cadet Blue is listed. Maybe the laundry products were restyled a little earlier in the year than the other items. |
