I don't know if Maytag was still doing this for the cheap dryers by the early 60s, but my aunt's bol 58 Highlander HOH dryer had a zinc-coated drum that she had to have recoated by Maytag at some point. I guess this would be a match to my time-fill Highlander. I am sort of surprised that Maytag was never sued by Scottish groups for the kilted character in Highlander advertsing to convey "Thrift" aka "Cheapness." It was dropped after a while, though.
I don't know if any of you are familiar with Mazda light bulbs, a term used in the 20s by GE and other light bulb makers.

That last sentence brought this up from the depths of memory: In the 50s & 60s there was a Cramp Fire Girls ad on TV that had a CFG lighting one of several candles. She said something about, "I light the light of Love for (some funny sounding word we could never understand) means Love. My brother and I had lots of fun with that by substituting stupid words for what we could not understand. Terrible, I know.
