It is, from 1964 or 1965. The more deluxe models, like my 30", have oval windows in front of each dial. Behind the window is a wheel with a red stripe that starts out the full height of the wheel for HIGH and gradually tapers down to a thin line across the bottom to give visual evidence of the heat level. Mine has two switches on the top of the control panel: one controls the fluorescent light with three settings, ON, OFF or switches on when a surface unit switch is moved out of the OFF position. The other switch is to choose whether the oven will cook and hold warm or just cook and shut off. I don't think that this range has the windows, but these were still built like tanks with very heavily insulated ovens that had thick doors. I remember in the spring of 1964 when three 40" ranges like this came into our Home Ec department. The TOL model had two ovens. The two single oven 40" ranges still had the oval windows.
 
i like.....

the control knobs for the burners, on this electric stove. and the way they look along the top of the control panel is kinda neat. but i think i prefer to have a window in the oven door compared to no window at all.
just my preference....

thank you for sharing this posting. it was interesting to look at.
