The stovetop toaster was a marvel of its day, with its simple design and useful features. These machines, in contrast to contemporary pop-up toasters, were set up directly over a cooktop flame. With precise placement in the wire racks, the heat from the stove would toast the bread to a flawless golden brown. Many of us may recall the exhilaration of finally putting butter on a warm, crispy slice of bread, as well as the minor tension of waiting for the toast to be just right and praying it wouldn’t burn.
