An interesting article that ran in Saturday's St. Louis Post Dispatch. Thought you all might find it interesting..along with the Turquois GE Wall mount refrigerator.

Good article. We had friends who moved into a MCM house on the Sunset Hills-Crestwood border (between Watson and East Watson)...the entire subdivision had the wall-mount refrigerator. I remember being very impressed when I saw it in 1980...it was old then and I recall asking "what happens when it breaks"...the answer was that you then re-did the kitchen.
The Ladue subdivision mentioned in the article was recently discussed on a MCM St. Louis message board (BELTSTL,com,...very interesting article about the National Historic Register registration, including the registration paperwork It was a heavily Jewish area, with lots of MCM in a subdivision without deed restrictions in the early 50s on the edge of civilization in St. Louis County.
We live in a Nat'l Historic Register community here in Detroit, only in a 1920s colonial!
