Deluxe Reading Dream Kitchen (1963)
The Deluxe Reading Corp. produced a kitchen that was not affiliated with any doll, but was advertised for “popular teen-age dolls” in general. The set appears to have been a Montgomery Ward catalog exclusive. Good to excellent condition.
The Dream Kitchen is technologically sophisticated, realistically detailed, and candy-colored mid-century fabulous. A motor-operated rotisserie and light-up burners were just a few of its cutting-edge features, and with all the dishware, cookware, and tiny food, 176 pieces were included. The lines of the table and chairs were positively atomic, with A-shaped silhouettes forming the chair backs and back legs, and a jaunty, bowtie-shaped top for the table. No box, but everything else is complete. No dolls included.
