Favorite Antique/Vintage Item for your 50s/60s Airstream

This set sits on top of the built-in oven, when we're not moving. From Kromex, who else...?

My mom had this set when I was growing up. She also had the matching canister set to go with them. She even had the one labeled "Bacon Grease". Times have changed.

Spent the day yesterday doing some antique shopping for the Overlander. As you can see from the colors, lots of turquoise, copper and silver. Here are a few pics of what we bought, a Kromex Cake Pan, two Paula Deen retro sauce pans, flamingo salt and pepper shakers, turquoise plad napkins, Lincoln Beauty Ware Canisters (incomplete set), and a Buddy Holly bobblehead.

While these are not vintage they are those retro colors from the 60's era, I found them at Goodwill $2.99. Stackable ceramic cups and saucers to put out on the picnic table! I will probably wrap up in a towel under the sink for travel.

I wanted to pick one up an antique store, but the Mrs doesn't want to go vintage for a toaster. She wants a new, stainless steel one.

Cuisenart makes one that is very Airstreamish looking.

I have an autographed 2010 Artstream poster for my '98. You guys just wait.

I also have KROMEX (for the 1953 house, but is great in any aluminum trailer).

So far, Maria hasn't let me get one, but I've always wanted one of the old-style toasters:
