Texas Julie spots a gorgeous Beauty Craft kitchen – maybe still for the taking?

vintage Beauty Craft cabinetsvintage Beauty Craft cabinetsTo go with our Beauty Queen story above, Texas Julie sends these great photos of a Beauty Craft kitchen that she spotted at a Dallas salvage place a few months a go. Here’s what Julie writes:

Pam! Look at these great cabinets I saw a couple months ago at a salvage yard…need some work, but GREAT GREEN!! holy cow, i want them! $2500, in Dallas. probably long gone by now, but i had to share.

I love salvage yards…I hate to tell where these are in case I decide to go get ’em! Ha. I tried to talk my husband into them…but so far, no dice. Pretty cheap price, huh? They are at DHW Salvage on Empire Central in Dallas. Or were, anyway.

Have fun!!! 😀

Thanks, Julie. And notice, y’all, the trim at the top of the sink base. This appears to be just like the trim on the possible-Youngstowns listed on the Forum this weekend – the ones from Virginia Beach. Looks like those Youngstowns are Beauty Craft’s after all, and we now have a way to identify this brand, at least in this iteration.

    I have a 1953 Beauty Craft kitchen, looks very much like the one shown above except in off-white. I want to replace the cabinet pulls but they are4 1/4″ on center, not a standard size. Anybody have any idea where I can find some? I need 32. The ones in this photo are chrome and would be perfect. Mine are wood.
    Thanks!

    Hi McFish — be sure to see the Postwar Steel Forum on the upper nav bar – far right. It is chock full of cabinets for sale across the U.S. – and you can post your search there, too!
