    Description

    Absolutely gorgeous West Bend Electrofinish Aluminum "Cherry Red" 8 Cup Automatic Percolator works (I'm not 100% sure that the inner coffee basket parts were made for this, but they fit, work, and look new). It was advertised as cherry red, and maybe it was, because the inside of the lid looks sort of a metallic red, but the outside of the pot and the lid looks copper, which is GORGEOUS. It has a cream bakelite handle that is in great shape, and the cool glass bubble top on the lid is in perfect condition! I've bought a new cord from ACE hardware for you to use (it was almost total! Craziness), as I don't have the original cord. Neat fact, this pot has a date hand-etched into the bottom of 4-7-1957 with "NC" after it. I guess the owners wanted to keep track of their purchase date. Please look at all of the photos for condition details, as it does have some scratches here and there. Let me know if you have any questions or need more photos. Check out my other vintage listings, too--happy to combine whipping whenever possible/safe to do so. Thanks!
