30-inch Turquoise GE Range

Listed in Central Pennsylvania's State College Craigslist. Thought that I would pass on the word, as I would hate to see this fall into bad hands.

It's $200, perhaps someone could weedle the price down.

Very lovely, but that's a 24-inch stove. GE used to put two of those together and called it something like the Empress or Stratoliner; at the moment I can't remember.

I'm embarrassed

Thanks for the kind correction...I was in a hurry to post the original post and my brain was on another planet.

I do that sometimes.

GE named all there 40 inchers names having to do with aviati

and as of 1954 they were, from TOL to BOL, the Startoliner, the Liberator, the Mainliner, the Speedster, the Airliner, the Stewardess, and the Leader...PAT COFFEY

Thanks Pat. I knew of the Startolines and the Liberator, but had never heard of the names for the rest of the models. Fascinating. Very WW II.
