1950s era appliance store

[applianceguy47]

I visited this location and filmed what I could. My film isn't the best, I need a new camera.
This guy has been in business since the 1950s. He is 88 and suffering physical ailments. His store isn't active, though he still has some hand made signs on the front of his property.

I was amazed at how many stoves he has dating back to the 1940s. Place isn't sterling, but fun none the less.

If your interested in anything you see, the owner has said its alright for me to forward his contact information.

treasure trove!

I'm speechless (typeless?)! I could spend a number of days just picking through all that. Wow.

Erik,

Impressive! Must have been quite a surprise to discover this.

Wine Country

Usually denotes Napa or Sonoma County.   My guess would be Napa, since I believe a wildfire swept through parts of it within the past couple of years.

This is Windsor

Hi everyone. My name is Ken and I have just recently joined this great site after reading it for several years. This appliance place is in Windsor here in Northern Ca. I believe it's called Ed's appliance. We actually got some parts from him 30 years ago for my Aunts Tappan oven. He does have quite a wonderful collection. Your site here is wonderful. I hope it continues on for many years.

Area 51 revealed!

Welcome Ken!  When I had an old friend in Sebastopol, I brushed by Cotati a lot.  Thanks for stepping up and sharing the location of  Ed's with those members who had asked.

That is correct about the location.

I have not received any email asking for more information during the day, so I assumed there was no interest.

I try and respect peoples right to privacy, and would never put information in the public domain that might compromise that, without their permission. Being that this person is vulnerable I am concerned, though it should be noted that they live on site right next door to the shop.
