Cooker Control Switch

I have posted some of these in the past, but this is one of the earliest I have seen - this must be from the 1930s, maybe even 1920s. 15am plugs were unfused so I do not know if this unit would have an internal fuse for the socket or not

1970s Kitchen

Belonging to a deluded owner - deluded if they ever think it would fetch £500 or anything like it. Mostly the kitchens I post are, or were, luxury kitchens, this is far more MOL (and lower MOL at that!) and very common in 1970s houses. The cooker is a Creda Horizon 22 with fan oven and is the only bit worth considering, but never at that price

1980s Kitchen

Typical 1980s style, this time NOT from a deluded seller.

Retro style

but not retro - its about 15 years old, maybe slightly more. Bosch venturing into SMEG territory, but as far as I recall there was only this one model. Of course now retro style fridges are all over the place.

More delusions

Parnall Dryer at a silly price. I am really listing this just because I have not seen one with a porthole door

Blue Chef

I have no idea if this was a genuine, limited edition colour or if it has just been re-sprayed. I think it quite attractive but its expensive

Back into the swing

Been busy the last few weeks but time to get those vintage goodies back in sight.

Lets kick off with a Parkinson Cowan from mid 1970s. This was pretty much a BOL gas range, about 20 inches wide, my sister had one of these new after she was married in 1974 only hers had a black door.

Leisure Built In

I have posted these before, but I don't recall a wood grain one. The pictures show its origin, its a regular range that has had a chain saw taken to it. The cupboards were supplied along with range (I have seen them before) although I recall an article from Practical Householder in the early 1970s which showed how to make such a unit. Its not cheap ....
