Mirro Two Quart Popcorn Popper

In the 1950s and early 1960s Mirro made a series of very nice quality corn poppers in various sizes. They were all easy to clean two piece units with the hotplate-type heating elements permanently joined to the popping bowl.

This model C100M is the two quart capacity version in the series and stands approximately nine inches high and six inches in diameter. The legs and handle are black Bakelite. The lid has a clear Pyrex viewing port easily removed for cleaning.

This example is in beautiful clean condition and looks virtually new. Comes complete with Neoprene cord and our set of popping directions and hints.

The Popex Popcorn Popper in Two Sizes

Zowie! This is the Jayne Mansfield of corn poppers, with very attractive curves, even the legs have a shapely curve. If you are too young to know who Jayne Mansfield was, I'll give you a clue -- she posed for Playboy in 1955, and before that appeared on stage in "Death of a Salesman", and later in scores of films. But, let us get back to the popper.

It is a three piece model and was made in two sizes, either the two quart size for just a few servings, or the four quart size for a crowd, exactly the same shape.

Whichever one you choose, it comes with a detachable cord set and our directions for successful popping.

The Popper Chef

Dominion Popper Chef Corn Popper

Introduced for the Christmas season of 1948, this popper can not only pop two quarts of fresh popcorn with that heavenly aroma, but can also be used for quick-prepared cereals, heating canned foods, and even a baby bottle warmer.

The popping bowl is separate from the heating base and the bowl can be washed as any other pan, and the base can be just wiped down.

This one is in excellent condition and comes with a copy of the original instructions and recipes, and a detachable cord set.

Ask about the one we have in MINT condition with the original carton and a special Popper Chef coin bank doll. Great as a nostalgic gift.

Knapp-Monarch Popcorn Popper - Early model

Knapp Monarch made very high quality, two piece corn poppers featuring a heavy duty, sealed heating element permanently attached to the popping bowl. We offer several versions for sale, and they all have the same heating element regardless of external styling.

This early model has "stand-off" handles; made of turned wood. The body sits on a ring base, This model is shown in a print ad from 1940 but I'll bet this model was in production in the late 1930s.

This popper has handles that are turned walnut, and the base is a ring rather than bakelite feet. It is very clean inside with the slightest bit of carbon in the bottom and it comes with the aluminum measuring cup for oil and corn and the original detachable cord set. It's a snap to use and to clean.

This one is in good condition and ready to make fresh, fragrant popcorn for your family, friends and neighbors.

The neat thing about this popper is that it automatically shuts off the current when it reaches the end of the popping so you don't have to rush to empty it to avoid burning when the popping stops.
