So for better or worse, it turns out that not every appliance in the early 60s was
pink. This 1961 view of the kitchen reverses the picture, with its rose-colored cabinets and stainless cooktop, counters, ovens and hood—and let's not forget the oddly prominent cookware. It seems to me that the upper wall oven poses any number of problems; the slot-like window prime among them. KBCULTURE welcomes any insight you wise readers can offer into this design mystery.
Of course the cookware is prominent -- it's stainless! I posit that the ad composers were trying to draw a parallel between stainless cookware (which the buyers were probably familiar) and stainless appliances (which they might not be).
