24 Comments on I was gorgeous then, and I am gorgeous now!
Outlet protector?
Charlie, I know I know, Okay I can not guess because you know ; ) It is very lovely though! I can't wait to see the guesses.
Come ya'll give it a spin!!
Have no clue. Can't wait to hear what it is though - curiosity is killing me!
As shocking as this may seem, no clue.
I'm curious about the answer though.
Wow! No clue at all...never seen it before in my life. Will circle back to see if you answer the question!
Charles~ You've got me stumped. Can't decide what room in the house that would be. It looks like tile, so I would guess kitchen or bath. I've got know idea what it could be. You know I'll be back to find out!
Charles -- since no one else is guessing, I will go out on a limb, and guess that it is in the kitchen and that it is the condensation vent for the dishwasher.
You have to love retro to appreciate homes of mid 20th century =]
I don't know what it is either but will come back to find out.
Alan, thanks---but the week is almost over now :)
Harry, nope---not a napkin holder ---but it might need a napkin now and then
Jeanne and Ralph---I think you know what it is---but just not calling it the correct name
Kathy, well 1958 must have been a very good year when it comes to this thing
Ryan, nope---not an outlet protector---well at least not electrical anyway :)
Don, you mind reader you
Hi Theresa----haven't seen you around in a while---nice to see you
Sardi, I am shocked, dumbfounded and just plain stupefied that you don't know
Kathryn the answer is coming right up
Donna, it is a kitchen counter---but this thing isn't where you would typically see it
Steven, I believe you know what it is as well---just not quite naming it the right thing.
Paul, the ones today are nowhere near made this well---not that they actually need to be made better than this----I wonder which uses more natural resources? Of course that is "real chrome" so I think we have our answer :)
Barbara, the answer is coming up next.
While a couple of guesses are close---they just miss on a technicality :) The correct name for the thing is an "air gap device." In this case it is for the dishwasher. Here is a picture of what it looks like inside---with the cover off.
The thing is all solid brass and copper with real chrome finish. With the scrap from this thing you could probably buy 3 of the plastic ones---but why would one want to---this one is a beauty.
What's an air gap device? NEVER see those out here.
I've never seen one of those things around this neck of the woods.
No way. Musk ox clipped nose hair holder. Pure and simple.
Why do you fill people's mind with such drivel as "air gap device." Get real. Really.
I have to say, that is a device made for the long run! Very well built and still functioning, no doubt.
Jim, yup---I have heard that before :)
Barbara, you mean this old one or the new ones?
Jay, just something to do :)
Jay, the thing is built like a tank
Ditto what James said.
Reuben, you guys are missing out :)
I was stumped Charles, what a find.
I have never seen this before, thanks for the post.
Charles, I too was stumped. After reading you explanation I do remember seeing this when I was a kid.
Tom A, it is indeed quite a beauty
Tom B, thanks for stopping by and commenting
