1948 Youngstown Kitchen found and installed

[packardmanken]

Apologies if this has been posted already. This is a fascinating story of a complete 1948 kitchen found in storage, un-boxed and intact. Eventually sold to a Ohio museum, it was returned from California and installed in a special exhibit. I thought this would be relevant with our interest in vintage appliances and homes.
Enjoy!!

re; Isaly's

I remember Isaly's. Ice cream sodas, and they invented the Klondike bar.

Back in the late '80s, I lived in a little college town in the mountains of North Carolina and there was a bar there called the Klondike Cafe. That was many beers ago.

Mark, Human,

That's what I was thinking, but couldn't connect soda fountain and bars together.
The Klondike is, or was actually in Alaska.

A little disappointed the Youngstown Kitchen didn't come with an automatic dishwasher.
