"Harvest Green" ?

Sorry! Wrong brand!

That's a GE!

Usually the opposite: You would see an actual Kelvinator range, or some other appliance, and sure enough the ad would say General Electric...

Kelvinator /= General Electric

I might be crazy but I feel like this photo of a J757 GE is OLD, like really old.

This is an incredibly rare GE range, one of the best they made. From around ‘69-‘73 or so.

If someone is actually going after this make sure to request more pictures. Hopefully it’s just a case of someone recycling a photo they found in a Google search “because it looks like my green one”.

Funny how these ranges, right up to the surface light, look like the bottom half of an Americana.

Tom, this is the same cabinet as used for the Americana hi-low ranges. I can't remember if they ever used the Americana designation for these, or not. The earlier ones had the pushbutton controls at the sides.

I contacted the seller and asked about the "Kelvinator" looking a lot like a GE.  I also stated that this GE should have a Sensi-Temp unit @ the right front and asked if that also worked.

 

She replied by saying everything works but that the photo was borrowed from the internet.  She also said "here's the actual stove" and promptly sent 2 copies of the photo from the ad....

 

So, Ben's theory gets the prize for being closest to the truth.
