I just picked up a Leonard refridgerator most likely from the 50's. I have been looking for a vintage fridge for some time now, I don't know what it is about them but I have always liked the look of them and now I got one!

My girlfriend called me tuesday and said she found me a vintage fridge on craigs list for 20 bucks (and it still woks great!), and we could pick it up that night! So we meet up with the guy and he says "let's go meet Leonard" I didn't know what he as talking about till we got to the basement, and there it was a Leonard curve top fridge. Well I tried to get it out of the basement with a dolly, but no luck. Me and my dad wen back tonight and got it out. I had said on the ride home, "well Leonard take a look around alot has changed since you were put in that basement 55 or so years ago" my dad laughed (probably thought I was crazy!)

well here are some pics,
I found some on a search, and they seem to go for anywhere from $1,000 to $3,000 depending on condition. What its worth doesn't matter to me I just think it's cool. Very Happy

It's a Leonard Super Deluxe model, if anyone knows what year it is let me know, thanks.

Yeah, that was a nice one.
I also dig these old 50's fridges.
So many nice designs. The 50's realy had it with all the nice badges and all.
