The GM Fridgidaire refrigerator ran on electricity and was the latest thing! The oven on top was made for use on a wood stove or camp fire. |

A White treadle sewing-machine and an Acme Collapsible Dress Form were handy tools in keeping your family clothed in the days before "store-bought" clothes became widely available. |
The Spin-Drier Washer would have lightened the housewife's burden because she formerly had to wring the clothes by muscle-power. The enamel-topped metal table was a staple in kitchens across the country, as were the S& H Green Stamp booklets, in which shoppers pasted stamps earned by buying groceries and other necessities. |

The Dressing Room contains clothing and accessories of fashionable Sulphur ladies in earlier days. The wedding dress was worn in 1910 by Ethel Perry when she married Frank Perry. Hat boxes from former Sulphur stores like Mary V's, Daubes, and Katz Department Store remind us of the days when the well-dressed woman never went out without a hat and gloves. |
