In remarkably good shape - appears ALMOST NEW aside from a small and light pencil note on the top of the front cover and the warranty portion is filled out - actually quite interesting. Anna May Cornell was a home economist and writer working within the tradition of branded domestic science publications that flourished throughout the first half of the twentieth century. Her professional background in home economics gave her work the practical authority and credibility that manufacturers sought when commissioning instructional publications intended to help consumers get the most from their appliances while building confidence in and loyalty to the brand. Home economists working in this capacity occupied a respected professional role during this period, serving as a bridge between the technical capabilities of consumer products and the practical needs and knowledge of the domestic user. Your New Westinghouse Electric Refrigerator is a promotional and instructional publication produced by the Canadian Westinghouse Company in 1949, combining practical guidance on the care and operation of the refrigerator with a collection of recipes designed to help the new owner make full use of their appliance. This type of branded appliance booklet was standard practice among major appliance manufacturers of the era, recognizing that a well informed and confident consumer was more likely to be satisfied with their purchase and loyal to the brand when the time came to replace or upgrade their appliance. A publication dated 1949 places the booklet in the postwar period of significant expansion in Canadian domestic consumption, as returning prosperity and the growth of suburban family life drove strong demand for modern household appliances. The electric refrigerator was becoming an increasingly standard fixture in Canadian homes during this period, gradually displacing the icebox that had served previous generations, and a publication helping new owners understand and enjoy their appliance would have been both practically useful and commercially astute. The care and use element of the publication would have covered the practical aspects of operating and maintaining the refrigerator correctly, including temperature management, proper food storage practices, defrosting procedures, and basic maintenance guidance aimed at prolonging the life and efficiency of the appliance. This practical content reflected the genuine complexity of operating a relatively new domestic technology that many consumers were encountering for the first time. The recipe content would have been designed to demonstrate the particular advantages of refrigerator ownership for food preparation and storage, showcasing dishes and techniques that benefited directly from reliable cold storage, including chilled desserts, jellied salads, make ahead dishes, and items requiring careful temperature control during preparation. Canadian Westinghouse as a major manufacturer had both the resources and the commercial motivation to produce a well presented and genuinely useful publication of this kind, and the involvement of a credentialed home economist such as Cornell would have ensured that the content met a reasonable standard of practical reliability and culinary good sense.

"Crosley was the company that first pioneered the idea of installing functional storage compartments in the doors of refrigerators and freezers back in the 1930's, but their idea was so practical that all the major food storage manufacturers immediately began incorporating the compartment concept into their own designs as well. In order to set everyone apart, individuality came to the design teams of all these manufacturers in the form of unique arrangements within the compartmentalized cold cabinet. When the 1956 version of the Fabulous Foodarama by Kelvinator was unveiled it was the ultimate organizer's dream. Offering a bevy of bins, boxes, trays and baskets it was like the Taj-Mahal of efficient food-keeping systems focusing on the nitty gritty details of good design." (from the Vintage Kitchen).
