The Truth
About Electric Equipment Prices
Are Prices Too High? Are You Getting
the New Features and Quality You
Expected in Post-war Appliances?
If your’family has been thinking of buying a new appliance,
you may be confused by conflictihg stories about today’s
prices and values.
The fact is, there is no purchase you can make at this time that
brings you more value for your money than a good electric
anpliance. While the cost of living is up 70 per cent over 1939,
according to government statistics, the average price increase
of ranges, refrigerators, washing machines, water heaters and
dishwasoers is only a little more than half that!
For example, today you can buy a brand new 1949 Hotpoint
Refrigerator for $189.75—only $10 more than the same size and
size cost in 1939-and this is a lot better refrigerator and has
many improved features When you consider that the dollar today
is worth just 60% of its 1939 value, you must agree that this
new, vastly improved Hotpoint postwar refrigerator actually
costs a lot less.
Compare this with the price increase in antomobiles, houses or
almost anything you buy—up from 20 to more than 100 per cent.
We see no reason for you to wait to buy a new appliance. At
today’s new low appliance prices you get the greatest dollar-
for-dollar values we have ever been able to offer. We say this
knowing full well that our future depends on satisfying you. We
sell a lot of things—everything for the complete electric kitchen
and home laundry--so we can’t afford to lose you as a future
customer when you buy any one of our appliances.
“You can look to Hotpoint for the finest—FIRST’ is no idle
statement. We mean it. So, we back it up witu the greatest
dollar-for-doilar value in quality appliances ever offered_ right
Now!
