Ronson Rio
Another Kenneth Grange design from the late 1960s - a complete re-design, rather like a small fan heater. Hoover produced its one version of this design although the Ronson is much more streamlind - minimalist even. This was also available in baby blue as well

Salon Dryer
I can remember meeting my mother at the hair dressing salon she used back in the 1960s and these monsters were the sort of dryers they used. At that salon the clients sat at the same basin throughout their visit, these dryers were wheeled over when required. I remember my mother commenting about how she preferred this system to the more modern (and more efficient) way of moving from basin, to styling area, to dryers.

At the other end of the scale
It dont get much more BOL than this! I suspect this is an early 1960s cooker, but the design goes way back to the 1940s as a means of producing articles using as little metal as possible. I have seen pictures of electric cookers of similar design

It seems
the New World has sealed burners? Way ahead of the Yank's there. What are the things out the sides that look like the gas line input?
The Cowan Parkinson must have been council block flat builders grade?

Builders Grade
I presume it is the cooker in reply 27 you are thinking about and you are headed back to Ronan Point but you are barking up the wrong tree. Firstly, the explosion at Ronan Point was most likely started by a gas leak and not the cooker in the flat- the lady who lit the match that caused the explosion took the cooker to her new home. Secondly, there was no such thing as builders grade in the UK back then as it was EXTREMELY rare for builders to include appliances in a new home. Actually council flats generally had quite well laid out kitchens as they were standards set for public housing - my first home of my own in 1977 was a council flat built 8-10 years before and my brother moved into a brand new council house in 1974. Both had quite reasonable counter and cupboard space with ample room for cooker (remember the standard back the was 21 inches), fridge (or even 50/50 fridge freezer) and a twin tub washer. But no appliances were supplied with either kitchen.
