Just picked this up today. It is the Westinghouse Model RO-91 Roaster. The stand was sometimes sold separately. You could put the roaster on a counter top or you can put it on the stand. The stand is also a cabinet which can be filled with vintage enamelware and kitchenware which it shall be.
Just to the left of the handle is a space for putting on optional clock/timer. That will be coming soon.
This piece is from the 1950s.
I'm sorry to be so ignorant but what was this meant to roast?
I've not seen one before!
Thank you racer4four. You can pretty much roast anything that will fit in it. Turkey etc.
Never seen one too, learning everyday here ;-))
Hey fort, I think I have the timer:

Yes that is the timer. I just ordered one last night. That is such a cool looking clock.
And thank you very much kyratango.

Grandpop worked for Westinghouse and Grandmom cooked thanksgiving Turkey in one of these for years,as did my mother till about 1978.
Thank you very much RonM. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much vintagelamp.
Thank you very much nutsabotas6. It is a vintage Cosco stool, it was made that way.
So the roasting gets done in that big sort of pan with the lid at the top, and the underpart is storage, right? This is pretty cool. :)
Thank you very much katherinescollections and you are correct. I figure with the storage space it actually saves space. My clock is waiting for me at the post office. Wait until you see it with the clock.
Thank you

Thank You for Sharing the photo's..
It looks much better and complete with the new Clock in.
The roasting pan looks as if it has never been used.
Jealous lol
:)
Thanks again. The clock is vintage I think it is new old stock.
TexasAntiques, I have one of these that I just inherited. You can feel free to contact me about it.
