Antique Questions Forum / child's kitchen stove from 50's

« on: April 28, 2010, 09:57:08 am »

I was able to click a rather poor pic of this little stove with my cellphone last week when I was going through mom's estate.  This little stove is still fully working with oven and burners powered by electric.  The front panel says something about 'Cook and Cool' I believe.  Sis and I remember using this little stove all the time as young girls.  I have looked online for info, but just end up with lightbulb powered units.  Can anyone shed light on this little gem?

re: re-sending with pic.     
I just brought home from mom's place a Hudson Bay Point Blanket. Blanket has evidence that a tag was once attached to the center of one of the ends.  Background is that I remember this blanket being used in the car in the early 60's and how fussy Mom got when one of Dad's pipe ashes landed on the blanket and left a small hole.  Other background is that my Grandmother worked in logging camps as a cook in the early 1900's. Also, Minnesota Woolen Mills used to have a home sales service in the early 60's in our town of Ione, WA.  I remember the sales person coming the house with Dad's workwear. The twist to this blanket is that it does not have 'Points'.  Why?  Where is this blanket from?
