I just love how splayed out the doll is...she really looks frozen!<BR/><BR/>PS: Note the fridge's "icebox" in the upper-right corner, which at the time was exclusively used for...ice. I assume that people didn't use freezers for anything else then...no frozen peas, no frozen TV dinners. Fresh meat.<BR/><BR/>PPS: I think that the "remove the door before discarding" law applies pretty much everywhere; it certainly does here.Adam Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634565262440008573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32999748.post-34759583098332554742009-03-16T12:10:00.000-04:002009-03-16T12:10:00.000-04:00G.E. – we bring good things to life???I remember e...G.E. – we bring good things to <I>life</I>???<BR/><BR/>I remember external-latching refrigerators with enough space to admit a small child. Even though latches have given way to magnetized seals, it’s the law in New York (and elsewhere, I’m sure) to remove the doors before discarding the appliance. Hide-and-go-seek, anyone?<BR/><BR/>There was a “King Of Queens” episode about being locked in a refrigerated truck with a load of penguins. Of course, since it’s a sitcom, everyone is okay in the end. But this kind of incident could happen, especially in large, commercial walk-in refrigerators.<BR/><BR/>I think the jealous sister did it. The ad gives new meaning to the phrase, “Put the kid on ice!” ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
