city. This rarely-seen early design had the bread flat to the table instead
of perpendicular to it--the same orientation that mimicked how toast was
made over a fire since the Middle Ages! The manual flipping of bread, as
seen here, in any kind of toaster was not eliminated until 1913. If you look
closely in the background there are 3 other electrical devices; the middle
one is the very electric coffee percolater seen on the postcard above!

excess electrical generating facilities
of interurban systems at night to provide electrical power for street lighting & for
businesses with evening hours in a wide area. Note their specialized vehicle to ride the rails
of the electrified trolleys which provided interurban service regionally;
this was needed because the condition of the electrical lines over the rails
was of paramount importance to them.
