Marilyn in Saint Cloud, Minnesota bought this model toaster and wrote to say Thank you so much! I received my toaster yesterday and it's perfect! It looks new and it works beautifully. I'm thrilled to once again have real toast - evenly browned all the way to the edges - and faster, too! It's worth every penny. Thank you for such great service! Tom in Fairbanks bought this model toaster and wrote to say We received the Toastmaster toaster yesterday. Package arrived undamaged. Nice overpack job of toaster (and very appropriate use of ny times!). Toaster worked as expected and we celebrated with toasted swiss cheese sandwiches. Thanks for the masterful resurrection of "yesteryear". The Brennans in Lakebay, Washington bought this model toaster and wrote to say Just wanted to touch base with you and give you some feedback on our toaster. We purchased the 1B14 toaster this past winter. It is the best little appliance we own...Totally consistent and reliable...and it's BEAUTIFUL! Thanks so much for what you do! |

Toastmaster Super De Luxe Powermatic ToasterThis model Toastmaster began production in the early 1950s in competition with the popular Sunbeam model with radiant control which also lowers the bread automatically.This toaster has no lever to push down to begin toasting. Just drop a slice or two of bread and the carriage lowers and the toasting begins. It turns off automatically when the toast is finished and the slices rise up ready for buttering. The initial production of this model was nicely signed on the front. This later model changed to an incised signature. It has the familiar Toastmaster cartouche on each side. The only control is the light/dark dial which serves as a panic button when pushed in to end the toasting early. This one is in good condition with light scratching from abrasive abuse and the slightest dimple below the cartouche. It has been cleaned top to bottom then fitted with a new replacement cord and plug, good for another decade of service making toast. N.B. Especially not suited to toasting thick slices.

 Mike in Madrid, Iowa bought this model toaster and wrote to say Chris from Spring Valley, Ohio bought this model toaster as a gift for his mother and wrote to say Thanks for helping me make my 89 year old mother a very happy lady. To have perfectly even toasted thin slice bread in one easy step again after 30 years delights her with every use. The only thing wrong, according to her, is she now has to find a new pet peeve to fuss about. Thanks again, |
Toastmaster from the late 1950sThis model Toastmaster began production in the late 1950s and continued on into the 1960s. The basic guts are very similar to the hugely popular model that came out after WWII, but the feet and fittings were streamlined and made easier to assemble.This sturdy toaster has a heavy steel case with chromium plating. This one is in very good condition with minor cosmetic flaws. It has been cleaned inside and out then fitted with a new replacement cord and plug, good for another decade of service making toast.

The Walking ToasterThe earliest models of this toaster were produced in New York City in 1937, first in Manhattan and later across the East River in Long Island City, Queens, near the Breyer's ice cream plant. This is spittin' distance to the site for Amazon's headquarters that didn't happen a few years back.It was billed as "New As Tomorrow" On one end of the toaster is the knob to control light to dark, and on the other end is the On Off switch. The massive base is bakelite and signed nicely on both sides. You press the on switch and let it warm up for about a minute then put in bread in one end, watch it going by in the little porthole window, and it comes out toast on the other end. The bread moves through the toaster propelled by a clever mechanism driven by a little motor. Please note that this toaster is not good for thick breads or English muffins and other round breads. The steel case gets quite hot during use. This one has been disassembled, cleaned and completely serviced and ready for making the morning toast, or entertaining all the neighbor kids for an after school snack. The toaster measures 12 inches long, 5 inches wide and 10 inches high. The Walking Toaster
