Re: Reply #80
The house my family was living in when my father died in 1962 had a Westinghouse Center Drawer fridge just like this, only it was Coppertone with the SS center drawer. The rest of the kitchen was also all Westinghouse, but the other appliances were 1956 built in models dating from when the home was built.
These center drawer models must have been pretty rare as the only ones I’ve ever seen other than the one we had are in the great old ads that Louie posts here for us to look at. Thanks Louie!

re; gold Tappan from 1972
The photo add is from Ebony magazine. I liked those. I think the warming shelf Tappans were discontinued in '73, 0r '74. That one is a lower end model. Continuous cleaning ovens were great if you ask me. They did offer a self cleaning gas model, however it had problems with oven ignition as there was no pilot light. The electronic ignition had a mind of it's own on wether or not it lit. Meanwhile waiting for it, the gas valve remained opened. Too bad. That model had burner with a brain as well, and a waist high broiler.

Always welcomed Eddie!
I have to admit, that Westinghouse (#80) is a stunner. Decades before other refrigerators had that 3rd drawer.
