Scope and Content
"Kitchen Reminder and Cooking Timer" distributed by the Germantown Savings Fund, 1244 East Chelten Avenue, undated. This is not a kitchen timer in the classic and common use of that phrase, but rather, consists of a heavy paper clock, with tabs along the sides with a list of grocery items such as "beverages," "lemons," "salt," "soap," etc. one can pull any or all tabs, so that a red dot appears in an associated window. The user can then remind him or herself to start and finish a project related to any of the products "lit" with a red dot by moving the hands on the clock. On the reverse- a series of conversion tables and cooking times, for various foods.
