Re: Bakelite Hairdryers
We had one of those MR types in the 1960s. It ran *very* hot - the outbound air being so hot that I'm sure it would not be allowed these days on H&S grounds. More like a hot-air-gun than a hairdryer!
On ours, the black bakelite grille in the outlet nozzle crumbled due to the heat, and the white bakelite round the heater-element discoloured to a nasty yellow in places.
