It doesn't look good for our oven.
The power switch stopped working last night. Just stopped. I tried using electronics cleaner on it but no go. It is kaput.
So I tried looking for a replacement on the internets. Nothing, nein, nada. Nobody seems to have a replacement switch.
I kind of expected that would be the case since our house is over 50 years old with a lot of the original fixtures, appliances and plumbing.
But the age of the thing didn't hit me until I did a search on the patent number and found out it's true (approximate) age.
Oh joy, I'm screwed.

And how old did it turn out to be? As old as the house? If you come visit us in New Orleans, I'll give you my oven/stove. It works great. I just have no kitchen left. (And when I do reprovision the gutted room, I'm getting a new one to go with the rest of the appliances.)
We're having a blogger convention on the weekend preceeding the anniversary of The Storm. You should come.
I really need to check comments more often!
The switch is a 50+ year old design and so far nobody has it.
Though one online vendor might have it.
