The Frigidairian - Summer 1950


Published by Frigidaire in 1950-- Here is a wonderful piece of Frigidaire history. It is the employee magazine of Frigidaire right at the start of their golden years. 48 pages full of interesting articles and photographs about the going's on in Dayton and around the country with Frigidaire.

THE FRIGIDAIRIAN is issued periodically for the forty-odd thousand dealers and salesmen who handle and sell Frigidaire products throughout the United States. We are mailing this issue also to all Frigidaire employes. It contains so much timely information about Frigidaire and our sales organization who sell the products we build in Dayton, that we thought employes and members of their families would find it interesting.
