VINTAGEFostoriaELECTRIC Dry IRON Wood Handle 550W 115V Original Box 505B NEW

Here is an awesome vintage iron!


This is a bargain for you!Comes new in the original box with the original tag!


These irons have been stored, unopened, in my warehouse some 50 years. When you get one, it will be new, in its original box. The one in the photo is one I took out of the box for the first time in 50 years -- in order to get photos. This is the way it looks after being stored in their original factory cartons some 50 years in my cozy, comfortable, wonderful warehouse. They are 100% new, 100% vintage, and 100% unused.


In the box, it comes without a cord, which is curious. Apparently the cords used to be readily available everywhere. I do have appliance cords and I will include one for you!The appliance cord is made by Southwire, and it is 18/2 10A 125V 1250W. It has 2 holes. They are 11/16" from the center of one hole to the center of the other hole! The last photo shows the cord.

This is what you get:

505 Lightning Electric Iron

Fostoria OH

Oakville, Ont. Canada

115 Volts 550 Watts

Non-Tarnish Chromeplate

Easy to Clean Beveled Sole Plate

"Perfectly Balanced, takes the hard work out of ironing"

Quote from actual customer sent recently:

"Ditched my modern iron that sputtered water every time for a vintage iron. Love it, it gets hot and is heavy so I don’t have to press down hard. I keep a spray water bottle on hand and my linens and clothes look great. Sometimes you can’t improve things. No microchips or bells and whistles. Just like my grandma’s. Thank you!"



DISCLAIMER: Since there is no temperature regulating mechanism on this iron, it does get super hot. Be aware that you should have it plugged in and use it in small doses to get the desired results.No one should turn it on and just leave it, because it will get hotter and hotter. Some people leave the iron unattended, and it burns their fabric.

Condition: NEW


Did I mention that this is NEW? It is NEW! It has been stored in our cozy, comfortable, wonderful warehouse waiting to sell this item to YOU! There are a finite number of these available, and when they are gone -- they are gone!
