Early 70's and still has the shine on it. It's......beautiful. Don't you think a little art beneath the cabinets is a good way to brighten up your day?

It was still working up until a day or two before I removed it. Not a bit of rust on it as far as I could see. It was installed somewhere around 1972,73. All metal.Made in Tenn. The mounting assy. was real close to what ISE has.

I'm guessing you didn't throw it out, right? Can't wait to see you on Antique Roadshow where some guy will tell you it's a limited edition in great shape; very hard to find. Probably worth around $10k at auction.. I've never seen one, and it does look great on the outside.. Brings back memories...

1) Do you still have it?

2) Do you want to sell or donate it?

If yes to the above, please contact me by PM with price ( Seriously)
