I am sure some of us saw White Christmas at least once over the holidays. There is a scene where the Wallace and Davis cast is having a party at the inn. Bing gets up from the sofa and then you see him in the doorway to the kitchen and between his left arm and body and sort of over his shoulder/upper arm you can see parts of the electric range. It can't be newer than 1954 which is when the film was made. The oven door handle is very plain and the cooktop is appropriately deep for a range of the time. There might be a rectangular clock or something with a square edge on the left side of the control panel. Some of the experts on older and rarer electric ranges might be able to look at this and tell what it is. I'm thinking Philco, Admiral, Crosley, Gibson or the like. Thank you for any help you might be able to give.

The range is a few seconds around 1:42 in the interview.

Who can tell what the stove is? Ya can’t see much but Bing Crosby and a bit of white porcelain. Good luck getting a definitive answer to your question Tom.

I've not seen this movie for a while. Can more of it be seen in the full length film?
I think we can rule out GE, Hotpoint, Westinghouse, and Frigidaire, due to differences in their construction fron the one shown. I don't think it's a Coolerator, Gibson, Estate or Kelvinator either. Perhaps it's an Apex, Universal, Kenmore, or some other store brand. I wish I could see more of it.
