" . . . just needs a compressor."

Oh, that's all? 

 

I just saw a fairly new Crosley side-by-side in a house that's for sale down my block.  I don't know who is really making them.  Other than that, I've only seen the Crosley badge on refrigerators that are much, much older.

Crosley was the first fridge manufacturer to have shelves in the door introduced in the mid to late 30s I believe. Hence the name Shelvador. They had a patent on it so other manufacturers had to come up with some unique designs of their own to get around patent infringement. Philco came up with the second door of shelves behind the outer door. I believe that lasted from 1941 thru 1948.
