"We are getting ready to do a complete kitchen remodel in our 1929 home. In 1959/60 the folks who had the home built completely gutted the 1929 kitchen, opened up a butler's pantry to enlarge the kitchen, and installed some of the most modern appliances of the time. These include 2 Revco refrigerator units, a Revco freezer unit, a Hotpoint push-button stove, and 2 GE oven units. As the third owners of the home, we've enjoyed the kitchen for the past 7 years and all of the enthusiasm that visitors have expressed for the vintage appliances. But my wife is ready for a kitchen which better suits her cooking interests and a kitchen which is more appropriate to the age/style of the home.
Despite their age and some minor cosmetic issues they all work except for the broiler element in the lower oven and a couple of the stove settings. Is there anyone in the northeast Indiana area interested in purchasing all 6 of the above-mentioned appliances for a vintage renovation or for parting them out? I'm thinking $1,500 for the lot and I'll even throw in the dishwasher and kitchen sink for free. If anyone is seriously interested in any of the custom 1960 cabinetry, let me know, I was going to use some of it as storage in the basement and garage but would prefer to sell it if anyone has a use for it. If there's anyone with a serious interest in purchasing who wants to come see the kitchen while the appliances are still hooked up and running and who can realistically haul them away before the reno begins, please send me a pm."

Wonderful stuff
I love seeing kitchens like this one that were built for people who really cooked at home during a time when cooking began with opening a can of condensed soup. I hope everything went to a good home where they will be appreciated and used. Never seen much information about the Revco built-ins; do any of you have pictures or brochures on them? I will check out the Ephemera Library. And, of course, the original dishwasher is long gone. Whaddya think, a Hotpoint or a KitchenAid?

Can you imagine the cost of that custom range hood? I think the speed selector on the left meant that it was a Trade Winds. | ||

I agree about the Tradewinds. My childhood home had a wall switched tradewinds blower unit built inside a custom copper hood. Louder than ...! WANT the 3 Customline cooktops! | ||
