The Toaster Museum Foundation view detail comment email this

Articles, trivia, art, Toasty Links , and more about this bread enhancement device. This foundation and its Web museum were created because "much can be learned about cultures through the examination of everyday items...the history of the toaster is the history of 20th Century Cultural Trends and Industrial Design...a more emotional response is that they are fascinating, funky and fun, demonstrate the better side of human ingenuity, and simply uplift one's spirits!"
