Hon, you are gonna love that 1954 range!
I've had that same stove except without the oven window since the early 80s. Those oven heaters were Frigidaire's first sealed rod bake elements. Mine had been used a lot and the heat radiating against the removable bottom trays really did a number on the porcelain so I covered them with foil to reflect the heat away from the dark porcelain. The Wilcolator oven thermostat for the large oven has an interesting automatic preheat feature. If you turn the thermostat all the way to BROIL and then back to the temperature you want, both the broiler and the bake elements come on to do a fast preheat then the broiler element cycles off and only the perimeter coil of the broil element cycles with the bake element to provide top heat during baking to assure perfect browning. You are probably gonna lose it when you turn on the full width fluorescent light and it reflects in that honeycomb mirror. The square trough in the aluminum light cover was meant to hold a square black salt and pepper shaker set.
That little metal circle with the lens in it above the deep well has two c-7 bulbs behind it. There is a thermostat in the liner of the deep well Thermizer unit that presses against the pan. You heat fat for deep frying on HIGH and both lights come on. When the fat has reached the proper frying temperature, one light goes out. That is the signal to switch the heat to MEDIUM HIGH. At that setting, the thermostat cycles the element to keep the fat at the proper temperature. The minute timer chimes when the time is up and the delightful chiming continues until you turn it off.
This is a wonderful range, heavily built like GM used to build cars. I replaced the two front units with 208 volt elements from an apartment range John hauled in. Now I have real power with close to 1600 watts in the 6 inch and around 2500 watts in the 8 inch. Mirro made a deep well pressure cooker for Frigidaire. I looked long and hard for one for my stove and found it. It's sort of a stupid idea if you think about it very long, but when pressure cooking was at its peak, three range manufacturers and three pressure cooker manufacturers got together to offer this feature for the deep well.
