We have the exact same OM Oven and Stove as the Draper's had on the set of Mad Men. It was a real kick to see it when we were watching the show. Had to TiVo back and pause it a few times. It came with our 1956 ranch house. The previous owner left it as is, in original shape, from the hanging...

Took a look and I don't see a lint trap on the dryer at all. but the one on the washer looks brand new. I got these from a friend who inherited them a couple of years back but now in the new house (1956 - new to us), I've got nowhere to store them.

Kenmore 400 washer and dryer model 6504400/6508400. Any ideas on the year these were made? Thanks for the help! -Jeff
