The Amazing Toast-o-Lator The Space-Age Suburban dream ... efficient and space-saving all at once! This is a late 40s Toast-o-Lator. It is approximately four inches wide. The toast is "walked" past the heating elements on an escalator-like device and the dropped out on the other side onto your waiting plate. What could be easier? |

American Art Pottery Roseville, Rookwood, McCoy, Van Briggle ... affordable Art Pottery made in the early days of the 20th Century that now command high prices! On the left is a Roseville "Bushberry" jardinier pedestal. Like most jardiniers, an early frost did the planter in, but the pedestal survives. To the right is another piece of Roseville, a small "Freesia" jardinier. Below the Freesia jardinier is a Rookwood vase from 1927. A variety of useful and beautiful objects were created by American Art Potteries and filled Early Modern homes with Arts and Crafts style beauty and Art Deco elegance! |

The Silex Coffee Pot: If you look closely at kitchen scenes of 1940s films, you'll spot a Silex coffee maker sitting on the counter or the electric range. The films "Sunset Boulevard" and "In a Lonely Place" feature brief cameos of this wonderful coffee maker. While contemporary chrome electric coffee makers are nice, wouldn't you really rather look at one of these? I would and I suspect you would, too.. I'm still trying to figure out just how the coffee is made ... and why I can't find one these! |
