Hotpoint BIG BIN

We had a Hotpoint fridge with the BIG BIN.
It was more of a BIG PAIN.
Early on the spring sprung on the lid. Instead of the spring keeping the lid down, it kept the lid up. You had to push that plastic lid down just to close the refrigerator door. When you opened the refrigerator door it would bounce back open. It did that for years.
Why my father didn't get a replacement bin is beyond me, after all he DID work for Hotpoint.
However, the fridge did have the electric butter warmer which more than made up for the stupid bin trouble.
 
Can't see pictures

Why am I not able to see the vast majority of photos Louie posts in these three threads.  Just like on this thread, I"m not able to see replies 5, 6, or 7.  Just a big box that's outlined and a little "x" box on the upper left side.  I even right click "show picture" and nothing happens. very frustrated and disappointed I can't see all these ads. 
 
That's very strange.

<span style="font-size: medium;">I see them fine. Anyone else having trouble?</span>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Any ideas on how to remedy Bob's (appnut) issue?

I remember the parents of one of my Mom's girlfriends having an air conditioner similar to the Kelvinator shown above.  Their model was on legs, stood about chest high, had casters on the bottom of the legs, and the exhaust and drain hose were vented out an open window.  My memory is somewhat vague though because the last time I saw it was about 1982 or so. 
 
Kelvinator Cookbook

I have a couple of Kelvinator cookbooks from the 1930's and 1940's. When I needed to make home-made ice- cream for a party I used the Kelvinator recipe. Who would know more than them?? I used their egg-custard ice-cream recipe.
Anyway, the recipe is faaaaabulous and I have used it ever since.
In a strange juxtaposition of times, I put the Kelvinator ice- cream glop in a Panasonic ice-cream freezer that is battery operated and microprocessor controlled; you just place it in the freezer and push the button. It stirs every few minutes until solid. The LED blinks when done.
Perfect results every time.
 
Motorola TV sensitivity

Boy, that is one SENSITIVE Motorola Color-TV.
You can pull a perfect color picture on.... MARS... with the dipole down?
Just how did they jam 4000 IF stages in that set? Or maybe they ran a real long cable.
Those sets were so heavy it doesn't surprise me that it doesn't float away.
 
Bob, what browser are you using? Make sure "Show graphics images" is turned on or it may be "show text only". Have you tried to reload the page? Sometimes that helps.

I really have been enjoying these ads. What a nice selection of everything.
