Vintage 1935 Proctor Snap Stand Speed Iron Original retail Would be a great prop for movie . At Proctor & Schwartz Electric Company, of Philadelphia, someone got the idea that the trivet could be built into the iron. Thus, the "Snap Stand" was invented. The two thick wire supports nested along each side of the iron while in use. When the user desired to stop ironing, the iron was lifted from the work, the user's thumb pushed back on the small lever at the top front of the handle forcing the wire supports down and under the iron. The iron was then set down on these supports. When the iron was lifted again for use, the spring-loaded supports automatically swung up and out of the way!.
