Revcos in Houston

Revco "Bilt-In" refrigerator and freezer. These are so rare. For someone with lots of style and lots of money (they'll need to be completely rebuilt).

Love the use of "Eames Era". I thought "Eames Era" stuff was Danish Modern design from 1959-62 or thereabouts.

just call me an odd duck...

...I've been called a lot worse, but those things look like part of the City Morgue...creepy. Maybe if they were painted GE Sunshine Yellow.

Revco...

Was sort of like Sub Zero, it was sold as a semi commercial product, but like sub Zero, it never was very good, or at least I have never seen one still working.

I've seen these in kitchens at estate sales in upscale homes.  I can't remember if these Revcos had a remote compressor and condenser or if they are built in to the units as pictured.  I've seen built in refrigeration both ways, remote units are nice as the remote takes all the operating noise, fan and dust out of the room completely.  Just silent, cold storage in the kitchen.  It's a bit optimistic to ask this amount of money for these Revco units given their condition.  I wish the seller luck with their endeavor and their new LG - lol.
