That dishwasher
will attract some attentions. Those are awful photographs; I'd love to see the controls for the Mark 27 and some more-revealing pics of the hood.

I love that hood! How much more luxurious can a range hood get?

I have one of these hoods, I really like it. I wish I could install it in my kitchen but I'd need to replace a few ceramic tiles to go below it as it doesn't get as low on the wall as the current one...
Phil, neat hood, that's a real eye-catcher.
I don't think the price is too out of line if they're all serviceable, I just wish that range were a little more upscale. Hey Paul, like the man says, make an offer.

That's the last Princess, the 1961 model and it is rare; pretty machine and the only Princess w/ the Power Shower, but I'm still waiting for the one with all the buttons and the cup racks:

PhilR - does that hood fold down, then, to work? It looks like it folds up out of the way, which is really cool.

Phil, you can see the same model of Nutone hood in this ad, with the front panel in the folded and unfolded positions. The front panel also slides down when unfolded to expose the controls.
There was one like it above a 1960s Kenmore range in the house where I got my 1965 Inglis washer/dryer set and portable dishwasher. I made an offer for it but I didn't get it. Then I saw another one shown on the picture of Frigidaire fold down burners on Kijiji Toronto (which are still for sale I think). I contacted the owner making an offer for the range hood above them. Range hoods are another thing I like to collect!
I hope the link works: http://www.nolinbbdo.com/#!/the-work/133
Note that there's also a 1959 Frigidaire Imperial wall oven in Aztek Copper in this ad. I also have one like it but mine doesn't have a glass in it's door.

Phil, one good thing about these is that they are very compact with the front panel closed and they can fit in a relatively small box. So if you find one and it's not local, it's not very expensive to ship!
I got other hoods while visiting houses with appliances for sale (I got one along with my 1964 Filtrator dryer, another one with one of my A806 washers and a few more when buying ovens/cooktops). The largest one I got is a stainless steel 48" Nutone V50 and I bought that one on eBay. That one was a bit more expensive to ship... I still haven't used it but I hope to use it someday!
Here's one Nutone V50 featured in another French-Canadian ad <span style="font-size: 12pt;">(strangely, it's installed over a regular 30" range) </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">so you can see how big it is! The one in the ad is missing it's original knobs but mine still has them. This strange kitchen seems to have a Tappan-Gurney Visualite double wall oven at the opposite side of the kitchen. I can't tell if this ad was done in a real house or staged but in either way, I wondering how they came with an idea like that! Maybe the house originally had one large cooktop that was later replaced with a free-standing range. If the cooktop was also a Tappan, no wonder why they replaced it with a free standing range in the early eighties! Tappan built-ins were quite popular in Québec but they weren't too good and generally survived by their matching ovens (which were, in most cases, not used as much I guess).</span>
And here's my V-50 hood (the first picture shows it where it was originally installed (in Michigan if I remember well). <span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This one has two speeds but unlike the other ones with a variable speed single motor, this one has just one motor turning at full speed on "low", and on the "hi" setting, both blowers turn. That's why the knob has "Blowers" instead of "Blower" written on it.</span>

There's a NOS 24" NuTone hood like this at a local hardware store near us. It's copper and it kills me every time I see it because it won't fit in our kitchen (We need a 30"). The dang thing still has all of the stickers on it!

I'm almost positive; it's sitting high up on a shelf and it looks like the folding one above. That hardware store is my go-to supply place, as the guy buys out old closed businesses and has stuff that can't be found at the big box stores. It's fantastic. I'll ask about it the next time I'm there and see if I can get pictures.

I'd be curious to see what kind of blower it uses. There were turbine and lower CFM fans available with these hoods. I have always seen them with the turbine type but I haven't seen the 24" version. If you get there with your phone, take some pics!!
Have any of you bought any of these? I've been trying to contact the seller and haven't gotten any response. I hope this isn't another Craigslist phantom. I've decided that a trip up to Schenectady on a fresh Spring weekend might be just the ticket.
I was told in no uncertain terms that I had better not by my 'GE Arch Nemesis' AKA Hubby.... LOL
You know, I really like that guy more and more.
