With a bit of time off in the near future and my local Coffee stop closed, I dusted this bad boy off. Found it at Good Will many years ago (before the secret was out...) Looks like it just came outa the box.
I have a Sunbeam percolator left to me from my Aunt, never used! Love the Esso cups, all I have is the patch.
That thing is a work of art. What a beautiful piece. Cream and sugar with mine, please, and a scone if possible........Don.
"That thing is a work of art. What a beautiful piece. Cream and sugar with mine, please, and a scone if possible." See you at Iron Invasion?
Made back when the chrome was thick, and the women were straight. They made a good Toaster as well, the T-20 radiant control.
I use mine a lot. It is just the kettle version from 1939 and has a cloth cord in good clean shape. Water boils quickly and it gets stored in a big wooden box in my shop to ensure its usefulness for another eighty years. Sent from my iPad using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Ditto on the percolator and the 'Tiger Mug'. Years ago my ex and I found a case of these mugs in a former Esso station turned body shop. She has them still.
1964 Farberware 12 cup! Dad dropped it of the kitchen counter about a week after they bought it. The old man made the "new" handle out of some kind of hardwood and it's been there since. I'm on the third cord and still use it every morning. I do need to take some chrome and stainless polish to it again
