"Grand Peninsular"
has an all -steel oven.
Steel is wore uniform in thickness and
radiates heat more quickly than cast iron. For
that reason most cast iron ranges have steel
oven bottoms,
In my new range -GRAN[) PENINSULAR
-I have gone farther and made the WHOLE
OVF.N-top, bottom and sides - of STEEL PLATE.
That is the reason the "Grand Peninsular" is such a
quick, even baker -and saves so much fuel.
i have perfected a perfect system of Ventilation,
too. All the vapor and odor of cooking are driven
off -and a constant current of fresh, heated air fills
the oven,
1 also put a Thermometer in the oven door, so you can tell
the exact temppentare of the oven. It does away with all guess work
and insures perfect cooking.
These arc a few of the helpfill features that make my sew
