:D Yep , they shoulda put the TV on the bottom , heat rises & all it would cook the TV everytime the oven ran no matter how well insulated it was .

:scratch2: Oh , and they forgot to include the phone so she can call the fire department when the TV has the inevitable grease fire ....

I would hope they insulated the TV well or the heat would overcome it im sure...

Early instant-on feature.

Considering the extreme heating and cooling cycles, anyone standing in front of it could easily get a face full of glass.

They were thinking the same thing they are thinking now when they decided to put a computer screen on a refrigerator...

Gizmos sell stuff!

Love it! The heat from all the tubes on the chassis can cook the turkey!

I saw that article years ago. Totally impractical idea. The 1930's Crosley "Shelvador" refrigerator with it's built-in radio was a good one. Love to have that in my kitchen!

If this had been Detrola instead of Crosley, they would have thrown a camera into the thing! :D

That might be an early Raytheon Microwave

Nowadays they have the TV built into the fridge. My how far we've come, lol.

I since realized, it's a real "blast" from the past, haha. SCORCH! POW! Or as Lacey Burrows often says "IN YOUR FACE!"
