Great for Summer Camp

Campers Pie Chef with Long Handles

This one is an oldie, made of cast aluminum by a company famous for its castings. The interior pocket measures four and a half inches square. It has very long handles and the overall length is 26 inches.

With extra long handles, this is a good one for a campfire or fireplace.

Very Thin Pocket Sandwiches

Skinny Pocket Toaster

I'd never seen a pocket toaster this thin, but you'd have to use thin, squishy bread and not much filling. The pocket is made of formed aluminum with dimples on the inside. This one has red handles with a bale and measures fourteen inches overall length.

Non Electric Stove Top Toaster

This commonly seen non-electric toaster was meant to be used on a gas or electric stove burner. While there are many other models, this one seems to have been the standard item in the dime store and hardware store.

It is stamped from sheet metal with bent wire perches to hold the bread. The inside is perforated to allow flow of heat to the toasting surfaces. It measure 6 5/8" square and about 5 1/2" high.

Toast when you don't have electricity.

Polly bought this toaster and wrote to say that the toaster will go to a house off the grid on an island off the coast of Maine "got it today and it is in FABULOUS condition. Totally rust free and useable. MAny thanks."

Folds flat for storage

Round, Folding Non-electric, Stove-top and Camping Toaster

This is the other style of non-electric toasterseen most frequently, still being made today. I always thought of it as a camping toaster because it was among the family equipment taken camping, mostly to the beach and along with an Army surplus tent and clam guns to dig razor clams. Sweet times.

While there are many other models, this one seems to have been the standard item in the dime store and hardware store. The toaster folds flat for easy stowage. It measure 8" in diameter.

Jem from Paner Stamping

The strange twist of woven core seems to be designed as a heat sink at the center, but I have never seen any literature or advertising for this toaster, so I don't know for sure. It is used and the core may be damaged because it is loose. It measures about 7 1/2" across.
