Vintage Ekco Flint Stainless Steel Kitchen Tool Set Model 1968 Boxed NOS 1951 For Sale

Up for sale is a beautiful, highly collectible piece of mid-century Americana: a vintage 1951 Ekco Flint 6-Piece Stainless Steel Kitchen Tool Set, Model No. 1968. This set is in spectacular New-Old-Stock (NOS) condition, meaning the utensils have never been used and remain resting in their original factory display cardboard packaging. The set comes complete with its five signature core tools—including the iconic hand-crank rotary egg beater, potato masher, offset turner spatula, spoon, and two-tine meat fork—as well as the stainless steel wall-mounting bracket and the original printed paper mounting instructions insert. Each tool features the prized, gleaming stainless steel finish and the classic black \"Arrowhead\" handles that are highly sought after by retro kitchen enthusiasts.
Please note that while the tools themselves are pristine, untouched, and bright, the original red display box is in rough condition. It shows noticeable age-related shelf wear, scuffing, and structural softening typical for 75-year-old cardboard. However, it still holds the set perfectly and functions as a fantastic graphic backdrop for display. Finding an entirely unused Model 1968 set that still retains its internal inserts and instructions is an absolute rarity. This is a turnkey addition for any serious mid-century modern collector or anyone looking to add authentic 1950s charm to their kitchen. Please review all photos carefully to assess the condition of the box, and feel free to reach out with any questions before purchasing!
