*** Fedders Corporation was founded in 1896 in Buffalo, New York and manufactures air conditioners and other air treatment products. Fedders currently owns or licences several trademarks, including Fedders, Emerson Quiet Kool, Airtemp, Sun, Koppel, Eubank, Polenz, and Maytag.
I don't know, but $230 back then would be about $2,270 today!
I wonder how much he got paid to endorse those low-cost air conditioners. :)
Love that guy. ;)
