It's actually a 1953... Servel introduced the first refrigerator with built in ice maker in 1953. The handle style on the one in the link above definitely dates it to 1953. The style of the handle changed in 1954 and 1955. I have the larger two door electric model from 1954.

Isn't that ice box one of those federal government has been warning people off for years?

 We had a Servel gas refrigerator when I was a kid in the early to mid 50’s. And we had neighbors when I was a teenager that had a 1939 Servel that ran on propane, and in 2015 it was still in continuous use since new in 1939 when the owners parents bought it for their restaurant. When the power went out they were the only people on the ridge that still had an operating fridge.
