Description
Full color 7 3/4″ x 11″ ad for their Dual-Temp Refrigerator. The headline claims this unit will require “No Defrosting! No De-freezing! No Dried Out Foods!” and shows samples of foods frozen on “other” units and foods frozen the Dual-Temp Way. We see a picture of a Model No. 1191 unit with the door open and the neatly arranged foods on display and the text makes the normal claims about its superiority. The big unit is capable of holding 72 pounds of food with temperatures ranging down to 52 below freezing. When I first read the ad I thought, “Wow, 52 below zero” but then I re-read it and saw that it said 52 below freezing or -20. Tricky. The prices for these units began at $199.95 for a 7 1/2 cu. ft. unit.
