Crown 30", "Callie", late 50's.
As mentioned on descriptions of our other 30” stoves, 30” ranges with a true “vintage” look are quite rare, having been made within a very short time period: 1953-1961.
A close twin to “Clay”, our other 30” Crown from the same era, with slight differences in the clock and dials. Cool fluorescent backsplash light, and clock with 60-minute timer. Very nice condition, simple yet attractive styling, and solid construction. No problem handing this thing down to your grandchildren. Mini pilots on each burner mean a miniscule amount of gas consumed and heat generated. Here began the large ovens we’ve grown used to, compared to much smaller ovens during the previous half century of gas stoves. “Callie’s” oven is match-lit.
