Thanks Jeff, I see we have the same tastes.. and thanks for going to the trouble of climbing up on a chair to take those pics. Now maybe I ought to think about putting some of mine up on top of the cabinets.

Very nice blenders!

That gold anniversary model is my favorite!

Can we see a close-up picture of that fan on the wall? I know someone who would love it!

 

[hoover1060]

fan on the wall?

Are you meaning the exhaust fan in on the left side, partially hidden by the Osterizer Classic VIII?

Back when I was a smoker, and before I had the ceiling fan I used that exhaust fan ALOT for smoke... I ran it so much that it burned out!
Luckily I was able to find the "guts" at Home Depot and all works well again.

I'll get a picture of that tonight.

Pete how did you know I stood on a chair?

I apologize for the bad pics... my digital camera is not well, I have ordered another one and hopefully it will arrive before Tucson!

I knew because that's what I would have done LOL

Great collection Jeff! The one vintage blender I saved is my Cyclomatic. I like its looks and its uniqueness. It's like the second picture only with the white handle and trim.

I have that same type of exhaust fan too. It's on the ceiling above my stove and is probably the best exhaust fan I've ever used, far superior to those hood things people usually have today. Glad to know Home Depot has parts if it would ever go wrong.

I have my mixer collection up on top of my upper cabinets too. I'll have to take a new pic soon.

Great blenders!!!!!

Jeff, I love those blenders and mixers! I took pictures of them when i was at your home awhile back. I have a few blenders myself but most are in storage. I'm currently working on a display room at my folks house. Will have to take pictures then! Here's the one i have in the kitchen. A Sunbeam 8 speed. I also have a custom 20. Is yours white? Mine is harvest gold.

Pete, I like you collection to!!!!Makes me want to go dig those blenders out of storage!

Sunbeam...

Marty my Custom 20 is white/brown, found on ebay maybe 3 years ago new in the box from 1974.

The one pictured is also Oster made, but from the late 60's I think.
I like the jars with the plastic handle and metal band, so classy looking!

Nothing made today looks as nice!

Marty, that model Sunbeam is from around 1968 iirc. Our neighborlady Nosey Nellie had that model and when we lived next door to her I'd have been about 12 thru 14 y.o. she also had a cool Sunbeam MM I wished that my mom would have.. LOL
