I too have the one on the left, or at least from the brand, but mine seems to be more perfectly square and not rectangular(ish) and is a 2 qurt capacity. I think I got it as a Christmas present along with a bacon rack. I think I also have two of the one on the right front but don't use it much. Also have 4 little ramekin size/shape vessels that I do use for frozen veggies.

Wow, a twin or double size Chenille bedspread for only $4.98 in 1959! Today you can’t even buy a box of Tide to wash that bedspread for $4.98! But then the min. wage was only $1.00, which in todays dollars equals $9.65.
Speaking of chennille bedspreads. On Hwy 101, just south of Petaluma, Calif. there used to be an old shack like house right next to the freeway until the late 70’s, called “The House of Chennile” and they always had a colorful chennile bedspread flying in front on a clothes line with a sign that said, “spreads $40.00”.
This was when I was still doing hair for a living and I was in my early 20’s. One day I was talking to a customer about this while I was doing her comb-out. I said to her, “I can’t believe anyone would pay $40.00 for one of those ratty bedspreads”, to which she replied, “I don’t think those are the kind of “spreads” they are selling in that shack!” That’s when I learned that “House of Chenille” was really a house of ill repute! Ya learn something new everyday.

#13 got my attention: Monel. Had to look it up. I did some research in college on stainless steel, but don't recall focusing on Monel, although I am familiar with the name. Its high cost and machining difficulty probably accounts for its scarcity today vs. stainless steel.
"Monel is a solid-solution binary alloy. As nickel and copper are mutually soluble in all proportions, it is a single-phase alloy. Compared to steel, Monel is very difficult to machine as it work-hardens very quickly. It needs to be turned and worked at slow speeds and low feed rates. It is resistant to corrosion and acids, and some alloys can withstand a fire in pure oxygen. It is commonly used in applications with highly corrosive conditions. Small additions of aluminium and titanium form an alloy (K-500) with the same corrosion resistance but with much greater strength due to gamma prime formation on aging. Monel is typically much more expensive than stainless steel. "Monel alloy 400 has a specific gravity of 8.80,[9] a melting range of 1300–1350 °C,[10] an electrical conductivity of approximately 34% IACS, and (in the annealed state) a hardness of 65 Rockwell B.[11] Monel alloy 400 is notable for its toughness, which is maintained over a considerable range of temperatures. "Monel alloy 400 has excellent mechanical properties at subzero temperatures up to 549°C.[10] Strength and hardness increase with only slight impairment of ductility or impact resistance. The alloy does not undergo a ductile-to-brittle transition even when cooled to the temperature of liquid hydrogen. This is in marked contrast to many ferrous materials which are brittle at low temperatures despite their increased strength." CLICK HERE TO GO TO SudsMaster's LINK |
