Thos. L. James
Deep Freeze
dy dear Tom:
i confirm phone conversation with you today about the
Frigidairo deep freeze.
In looking over a catalogue, I note their description of
what they call their Model HJ-h which, if I am correctly informed,
has a tidth which requires a floor space of just short, of 36 inches,
a height of about 24-3/16 inches. This would fit into the space
that we have available and is preferable to an alternate freeze
that takes up less floor space, but is somewhat higher, and I think
all in all might be preferable to the small Crosley freezer which
first attracted ers. Kempner's attention.
The retail price, i229.75, would indicate, if .0' is the
usual allowance, a factory or wholesale price of about $160.00.
Please advise me if this is correct, though our interest in it may
lag if it can't be delivered until next fall as you indicated over
the phone.
ours very truly,11
P. S. Since the above was written, I confirm my phone message
with you. I understand you will see what you can do about a 4
cubic foot freeze made by the International with a floor space of
not over 36 inches.The check you requested is enclosed.
