Vintage Fridge Thread

And to make sure you knew if it was time to raid the fridge for your midnight snack... a handy clock in the fridge door!

1948 GE

Freezer cold control. It is set at #4 and is plenty cold at that setting. Never needs moved up from that setting.

WOW!! Love that Philco! Never saw one like that.

Philco had some amazing fridges.

My pics have been posted before, but as long as this thread has been started, here's my '57 GE Combination.  Note the full-width foot pedal for opening the fresh food section door.

 

One question.  How come none of the GE Combinations pictured have any frost build-up in the freezer?  Mine gets a layer going on the top (ceiling) of the freezer section right away and it wants to creep out toward the front, over the molding.

The Revolving Shelves

I've gotten spoiled by these.

It Does Have Vegetable Drawers

They were hidden by the shelves in the previous picture.

Beautiful 'fridges!

I have about a dozen or so roundtops stored various places. Let me dig out the camera.

 

Rick, let's see the Hotpoint downstairs.

Norge Clock..

Did you know that the clock was called the Night Watch, and it controlled the automatic defroster!

Philco

My great Aunt had the exact same Philco, they did indeed buy it at the start of WW2, she died in 1986 and it was still running with never a service, and my cousin still has it...still running, and you cant hear it after 70 years!

This is in our kitchen, its a 1949 Hotpoint. We had to do some rewiring to it, but new gaskets, and had it repainted. It was originally white, but is now pink.

We also have this G.E. Americana fridge we picked up from some friends. Had to do a little work to it, but it works great now. We have it on our back patio and use it for beer and soda and water. The backsplash below the fridge part does light up as well.

Foodarama

I could die happy if I had a Foodarama!

I would have no need for any other refrigerator.
