WE BOUGHT A HOUSE AND THE UPSTAIRS BATHROOM STILL HAS THE ORIGIONAL MAUVE TUB, TOILET,AND SINK. THE TOILET IS A WALL MOUNT SO IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS FLOATING. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS THE SAME TYPE OF SITUATION...(WE ARE WANTING TO GET RID OF THE PURPLE) I AM INTERESTED IN FINDING PICTURES FROM A BATHROOM FROM 1969.

We tend to go for the in-wall exhaust fan as an alternative. Have you considered these: http://retrorenovation.com/2009/08/12/2-retro-exhaust-fans-ceiling-or-wall-style/ The Trade Wind has been around since the 40s.

It has a gas range top, a gas auxiliary oven (which can fit a few casserole dishes), and a large, main, convection oven. It works like a dream. We had a tough time finding a 40" oven (so that we wouldn't have to alter the 50's cabinetry) with today's technology but a clean, retro look; this oven fit the bill perfectly. Now, if we could only find a hood that will fit above it!! My wife and I also recently bought this stove (the Frigidaire version, which looks exactly the same).

Looks very retro but with all the modern bells and whistles. I didn't buy a retro style stove; instead I bought a gas stove from Peerless that offers the electronic pilot, but, in case of a power outage, one can manually light the burners and the oven, which sold me. LOL, I can't live w/o my coffee, so at least I could still make it during an outage (I have a stovetop Bialetta and a french press). This is nice!
