Campfire ToasterThis commonly seen non-electric toaster was meant to be used on a wood or gas fire. While there are many other models, this one seems to have been the standard item.It is stamped from sheet metal with bent wire perches to hold the bread. The inside is perforated to allow flow of heat to the toasting surfaces. It measure 6 5/8" square and about 5 1/2" high. This one is a rusty old thing, not well cared for. Toast when you don't have electricity. Campfire ToasterSOLD |
The Jewel Toaster with Swinging DoorsThis non-electric toaster is a fairly scarce oldie made of stamped metal so it has the usual light right. It has an open bottom so the heat travels up and then vented through the sides.Each door has a knob on top to turn the slice to the opposite side. It has a nice signature on top of the toaster. Manipulating the knobs is enough to keep the kiddies busy if they are old enough to understand hot. Jewel non electric toasterSOLD |

From New York, the Wolff Visible ToasterMade in Long Island City, New York, the Wolff Visible Toaster is an ordinary design and the same style of toaster is still made today as a camping toaster.But, the graphics on the carton make it interesting with suggestions for use; note the Good Housekeeping seal of approval.

The company began in the late 1890s and was incorporated in 1931 and was dissolved in 1984. The toaster was patented in 1921. Wolff Visible ToasterSOLD |
