Powel Crosley Jr. - Appliances
Beginning in 1930, Crosley had added refrigerators and other household appliances to his products. During the Great Depression, because he had invested in his own businesses instead of the stock market, he was better able than many industrialists to keep his employees working and his products available to the public.
The Icyball was an early non-electrical refrigeration device. The unit used an evaporative cycle to create cold, and had no moving parts. The dumb bell shaped unit was "charged" by heating one end with a small kerosene heater. Crosley Radio Corporation sold several hundred thousand Icyball units before discontinuing manufacture in the late 1930s. In 1932, another product, his "Shelvador" was the first refrigerator to have shelves in the door.
