YOUR "SET IT AND FORGET IT" MARK-FORE
MODEL "A" AND "A-1" STEAM COOKERS
are the
ultimate in steam cooking advancement and were
developed through extensive research and
engineering skills to satisfy an urgent demand for an
easy-to-operate, easy-to-service steam cooker.
Independently controlled cooking compartments
constitute a remarkable and superior feature.
Each compartment can be used alone, or all three
can be employed simultaneously because each has
its own timing, steam control and signal devices.
The careful factory workmanship of Market Forge
craftsmen in developing this newest scientific
triumph in steam cooking equipment is your
guarantee of efficient, dependable performances.
