A very fair price and quickly shipped. Our plumber couldn't believe we had a new replacement.

The original faucet lasted 60 years of continual use...not bad. We just replaced the faucet on our American Kitchens sink with one of these this year!

As for the wallpaper on the soffit, you know what I think of that! NorthsideCJ, I think that you can replicate this flooring pretty well today – both Armstrong and Forbo offer TRUE linoleum.

And where is the oven/stove/range? This is pretty much the look I went for in my kitchen. (Minus the red floor and the drool-worthy drainboard sink) Not sure about that wall paper for the soffit though. I love this kitchen…..if only there were better flooring choices available today.

We still have all of it though. Down to the cabinets and countertop. We really loved it, but my uncle insisted on an upgrade.

You'd have to find these vintage (try historichouseparts.com), or, go for aluminum from Elkay (see Countertops section in the Fast & East box).

That would make a nice setup with my soon to be install Geneva kitchen. So, are the drainboard sinks still available somewhere?
