Does anyone have pictures or sales literature of those push button Maytag washers from the 70s and 80s? I've never seen one in person. They were rapid advance and to my knowledge had no electronics.

My Maytag has pushbuttons for water temp and fill level, and the mechanical timer.
Oh, and now a new pushbutton to force warm rinse. ;)
 
There are many posts on AW regarding the rapid advance Maytags.

Originally debuted in 1960 as the model 160, it was switched over to the A900 model in late 1961, with the A902 replacing the 900 in '64. In 1966 the A906 replaced the previous versions, which included the change of button color from grey to white and featured the large capacity tub. The A906 had a few revisions to the timer in the late 60's and was fully discontinued by 1972.
