Got a picture somewhere I guess. Tony remained a dealer for both RCA and Whirlpool up into the 80s at least.

We had the later RCA appliances in an apartment once. The local GE dealer stocked some, along with Hotpoint.
In the 60's, on a local TV cooking show, I worked on, @ KTLA-TV there was a natural gas Whirlpool fridge on the set. It had the RCA/Whirlpool logo on the door. It was turquoise in color. The program was in B&W.
