1940's Superstar Master Grill

Where: Uncle Raul's Bargain Basement, Jersey City.
Paid : about $10

I love the 'Chroming' of the past. Especially, Chromed Kitchen Appliances.

Before George Forman was even Born.

Before George Forman's successful 'Grill everything you can in minutes' grill, there were these  old chrome sandwich makers. The Superstar here makes this possible. This fine specimen here is new. Unused. That's right. Not a spot of grease anywhere.

Did I mention Unused?

 This shiny clean unit has interchangeable grill plates. I need to get the waffle plates. They're still at Uncle Raul's, but I only seen one the last time I looked.

Please note: 'Bake' is equally betwixt Cold & Hot

Bakelite Accents

**SUPERSTAR!!**

I have no idea what it's original purpose was !!!

Old Wooden Window
