I don't know how to link, but somebody in Indiana is selling a mint Frigidaire 1-18 set on eBay. Is a club member thinning out his collection?

Best of luck to everybody caught in this mess. Please stay safe.

What every bathroom needs White Minx for tinting those peroxide streaks and Spray Net to keep that bouffant perky.

The Pyroceram stuff was available under the name Corning Classics, but the line got smaller and smaller until it disappeared completely. Fortunately the stuff is damn near indestructible and pretty common on the secondhand market.

Although I have a marvelous glamour shot of myself with cigarette holder and houndstooth coat, I have no scanner--I'm poor. Sorry to disappoint.

A white Philco set can be glimpsed in "Candy" ('68). The mother-in-law in "The Burning Bed" had white Maytags and a box of Fab. "Abby," a very rare blaxploitatoin version of "The Exorcist," features an early '60s Kenmore set, with the washer and dryer at right angles from each other. The...

That is almost exactly like the V16 my cousin and his wife had in their old house. If nobody wants it they should donate it to the Salvation Army or something.

The incomparable Mrs. Miller "When you're alooone and life is making you looonely you can alWEEEEEES GOOOOO...DOWNTOWN!" Your house is to die for.

It would be nice if Falwell would just fade into obscurity, like his onetime cohort Anita Bryant.

Congratulations on your lovely new home. Those are all good sturdy appliances. I'm sure whatever is wrong with the Maytag can be fixed very easily. I've cooked with fixed heats; it's tricky at first, but you get used to it.

That was a GE set in "Weird Science." Can't really tell what Ellen Burstyn's machines in "The Exorcist" were...possibly Norge or Blackstone.

There's a Maytag AMP (?) in the utility room in "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane." Mia Farrow ads StaPuf to a window-lidded Frigidaire coin-op in "Rosemary's Baby." Poor abused Christina does the laundry in two Lady K combos in "Mommie Dearest" (though the action happens in the '50s at this...

Speaking of Julia, does anyone remember Dione Lucas? She had a cooking show in the '50s that Food Network (back when it was TV Food Network) used to rerun. Apparently the sponsor was Caloric, because she was always telling you to "preheat your Caloric gas oven to 375 degrees..."

There's a '60s turqoise Kenmore set in "The Birdcage."

Why not try selling it in the newspaper? A lot of people would love a good Maytag, and even with the problem you could still make a couple of bucks.

I've seen pictures of Porta-Dryers mounted to the wall above full-size washers. In this case it looks like they stacked it on top of the washer with some pieces of wood.

That is one groovy combo. Dig that marbled control panel! Congratulations on a job well done. I can't wait to see it working on a load of laundry.

I can't wait to see that chandelier. My cousin and his wife just moved into an old row house that hasn't been touched since the '70s. That means built-in planters, parsley green carpet, and hanging glass globes on dimmer switches. No matter what the home makeover shows say, the old stuff is just...

Congratulations. You've brought a classic Kelvinator back from the dead.

She looks so sweet! And she likes washing, too!
