The box has a simple illustration of all of the contents.
Everything is still in its original packaging - straight from Taiwan
The furniture is all painted wood with paper decals on the dishwasher and stove. The sink and knobs are metal. It is pretty crude compared to today's standards.
I found it interesting that the set did not include a refrigerator.
The decal for the controls on the stove is upside down!
While doing some research on the set, I came across a web site that has old Sears Catalogs and found the kitchen set in a Christmas catalog from 1980.
The set is advertised as nine pieces and also included dishes and food and sold for $12.99.
It is strange about the fridge! I like it - I like the light-coloured wood, and the interior views of the dishwasher and stove - and the striped wood chopping block, so of its time! A great find.
ReplyDeleteHello Troy,
ReplyDeleteThese are charming! I love how the furniture is somewhat boxy, yet the sink looks incredibly well made and detailed. It is a beautiful set.
Big hug

Wow, I think I have some of those pieces! Didn't know they were Sears' Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteUn conjunto precioso y fantástico la documentación que has encontrado,saludos:-)
ReplyDeleteLove the decals. The shape suggests the manufacturer was whatever Town Square was calling itself back then, but I'm surprised at the inclusion of a dishwasher. That would have been such an advanced thing for a home to have back then.
ReplyDeleteWow !!! absolutely fantastic blog. I am very glad to have such useful information.
