2nd 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.

Manning Bowman Black Enamel Toaster
This a nice looking toaster and one of the few that can be found with a
porcelain finish. It is stamped Manning Bowman on the bottom.
Both references I have call this the Simplex. A rare variation?

Landers
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.
