WH & OKM Deluxe Ranges in Pink and Yellow

[rp2813]

Both are pricey, but full featured.  On NorCal CL.

 

First, the O'Keefe & Merritt De Ville.  My aunt had a big yellow OKM range of similar vintage but not this loaded.

A pink Western Holly that embodies versatility.

 

Does that rotisserie spit protrude through the porthole (see ad pix)?

Ralph,

I think the rotisserie isn't fully inserted into the motor.

I wish I could have a dozen kitchens. That way I could equip each with these great appliances.

Yeah, I think the glass is so clean that it appears the "hub" or whatever part of the rotisserie spit is imbedded in the glass, which doesn't make any sense and would present a safety/burn hazard.  It's also evident from the picture of the rotisserie/broyler interior that the spit isn't inserted at the rear of the cavity, as you pointed out.

 

But it sure looks like it's coming through the glass in this picture:

The Western Holly reminds of the old 50's chromed cars. I've seen this model before, but not in pink.
Today's stoves are zzzzzzzzzzzzzz compared to these classics.
