Hello, and welcome to Bill’s History Corner. This week I want to tell you about a new picture we recently acquired. The photo is of a Mutschler Bros. kitchen display at the Merchandise Mart, Chicago on May 11th, 1952.

The model pointing out the great things that make up a Mutschler Kitchen is Ms. Pam Martin.  (Do you know who this is?) The display is part of a cooperative promotion undertaken by Mutschler Bros. and Chambers Corporation, Shelbyville, Ind. The Chambers Corporation supplied the “Drop–In” gas cooking top and the Chamber’s “In-A-Wall” gas oven, working in conjunction with the Mutschler Bros. Company who supplies the “Portabuilt” kitchen cabinets.

As we know from other records, the Coppes Inc. kitchen factory also displayed at the Merchandise Mart, along with most all major furniture manufactures in the Unites States and Canada.
