My wife got me this card for my birthday reflecting things that were happening when I was born. I thought I'd share some of the more pertinent ads with you all.

I think by 1963 they did away with the Swing-Out Shelves that they had back in 1959. My parents still have one of those down in their laundryroom. What a great idea that no one ever picked up on. | ||

We had the model from the previous year, 1961. Best refrigerator we ever had. Downhill from there, except for more efficient compressing. The manual ice dispensers and storage on this thing were brilliant; even though one had to fill the trays the old fashioned way, it was the most convenient icemaking design I've ever seen.

That ice cube design was slick. I remember as a kid a neighbor had one and it was so much fun to flip the ice cube tray over. It took care of the only irritating part of ice-making---the filling and (not) spilling of the tray. Wonder why that design died--only thing I can think of was that it was very sensitive to the leveling of the refrigerator. | ||
