? My Dad had that exact model, which I remember brushing out for him with a little brush that came with it.

Came in a smart leather box, Almost cylindrical but with a flat portion on one side so that the hinged lid can open.

Had to give up using it because it ran on coal-powered electricity.

She could heat my meat up anytime, and as it happens, I've got a nice joint she can deal with. Oooo OXO ummm.
