More Frigidaire in Poppy Red... a 'Refreshement Center' fridge!

I didn't realize that the juice containers on these actually mixed concentrate at a customer-selected 'richness control'. This looks to be in great cosmetic shape, but like so many, it runs but does not get cold.

Wow I like that color! Frustratingly it's too far for me to get at this time.

There was a slant-handle Westinghouse in the 50s that had a similar juice fountain feature, but it, of course, was all inside the refrigerator compartment. It was about 1954 or 55.

I have seen the Westinghouses, but didn't realize that they also blended from concentrate. But having to open the door isn't nearly so handy as this Frigidaire. You are quite right about the year, see the attached 1955 advertisement.

I remember when growing up that we "made" orange juice... from the frozen cans of orange juice concentrate!

I wonder if any of those are still running.

 

Hello?

Yes, is you refrigerator running?

Yes.

Well you better go catch it.

Very funny.

Click.

Is your refrigerator running?

Oh boy, I made a few of those calls when I was a brat... LOL

 

[moparwash]

I'd have vodka and orange juice on tap in this!

Good luck getting $700.00 for that dead dog!

 

BTW, I have a similar fridge in Almond, THAT WORKS, if anyone feels the need.....

Great plan, Jerry

The product planner in you! Of course maybe this is what the product planners at Westinghouse and Frigidaire planned all along!
