I don’t see a ground pin, which leads me to wonder if it’s safe to use.

Lots of appliances from that era I use the very same chord. It’s just basically an extension cord so if it fits in the hole it’ll be fine. Usually thrift stores have a bunch of cords on the wall and it’s hit and miss when you find the one you need

This seems like one of those situations where your “deal” may actually end up costing you more.

These are literally 20bux at Target. A thrift find ain’t worth potential short circuits and house fires.

I mistakenly purchased one, similar, and realized that the crockpot does not come out, to be washed, and turned out to be such a hassle.
Good luck to you finding a cord.
Ohhh just get a modern one. Cheaper than buing a new house.
My Mom’s like this played out. It was a great crock pot. I think the cord was discarded or I would help tou out.
I bet you’d easily find one on eBay.
Go back to the store you bought it from and look around. The cord may be there.
