Electric Toasters


GE D 12 Electric Toaster1st Model General Electric D-12 Toaster  This is a rare toaster!   The D12 was the first commercially produced toaster in America and was introduced in 1909 or so.  This one has one patent date on the base and another patent pending below that.  It has the high rack which makes it an earlier model, and the ends are closed which makes it a rare and seldom seen first model.  There are some stained hairlines in the bottom of the base but no real damage or cracks.  It works  I am not sure if the cord is original or not, but it fits.   A nice toaster and hard to find version.

2nd Model Floral Decoration General Electric D-12 Toaster2nd Model Floral Decoration General Electric D-12 Toaster  This is a pretty rare and very nice looking toaster!   The General Electric D-12 was the first commercially produced toaster in America and was introduced in 1909 or so.    It has the open end high rack which makes it a second model.  The later ones had a much lower rack to make it easier to remove the toast.   There are some minor losses to the gold highlights along the border, but overall the decoration is very nice. D-12 toasters with this decoration are much less frequently seen or found than the plain white versions.   There is one tiny flake at the base of one foot and that is basically the only apology.  It works, and the top toast warming rack is original and proper.  I am not sure if the cord is original or not.  The plug has a few minor chips but operable and otherwise OK.  It would be easy to change the plug end out if desired.   A nice looking toaster and hard to find version.

Vintage Brass Universal ToasterLanders Frary & Clark Universal Brass Toaster  I am not the final word on toasters, by a long shot.  I have never seen this before and never heard of an all brass one either.  It looks to be unused.  It is out of the collection we took on consignment from some folks in Oregon, and in general they never paid much of anything for anything, so I do not think it is something that someone refinished or rehabbed and sold to them.  They got 95% of their stuff at the yard sale or Good Will or similar back in the 60's & 70's.  It is what it is.  Hopefully rare & unusual.
