[swestoyz]

Hey Gang -

Portions of this brochure has been posted by members previously - now here is your chance to enjoy dreaming of making a purchase of a brand new 1964 Maytag - with the full-line brochure! If only those days weren't just a distant memory for some of us - to others (like myself) we can only enjoy those idealism's with instruments such as this campy brochure. Enjoy the next 15 pages!

"One Button Custome De Luxe Automatic"

One button says it all....

Notice they are using an A700 for the bleach shot.

 

[swestoyz]

I'm not sure what is believable with this shot - the father listening to the portable radio - or the look on her face!

 

[swestoyz]

"Over 15 millon Maytags have been sold"

Not sure why they called both the A702 and the A902 the 'Custom De Luxe' Models. Maybe Frigidaire stole the rights to Custom Imperial ;-)

 

[swestoyz]

Were birthday parties really like this?

Also - what in the heck is the youngest daughter riding?

"Mmmmm, this pipe tastes so good!"

 

[swestoyz]

Super Highlanders.

Anyone for a ride on the sled?

 

[swestoyz]

Hum, I think the oldest daughter is going to turn out just like mommy.

Super Highlanders - btw.

 

[swestoyz]

Ah - the Highlanders. Love these machines - time filled.

Where can I get shorts like that - and is that kids arm broke?

 

[swestoyz]

Great shot here. Two things - where in the heck are the multiple sugar-laced two-liters of soda - and the bags of Lay's chips?

Oh I forgot - most folks made their own food in 1964.

 

[swestoyz]

Ah - the Maytag Combination Washer - Dryer. Dream machine!

Not sure if she is waking up to do laundry or going to bed. Suspect that she won't be sleeping soon - once that machine goes into spin cycle - the whole house will be'a shakin'!

Timeless

This is the bread and butter of Maytag. RIP - November 22nd, 1983.

 

[swestoyz]

Everyone loves this shot!

"Why Dependable Maytag is your Best Buy..."

Hell will freeze over before Whirlpool decides to bring this back!

 

[swestoyz]

HOH Propaganda.

This is the only place in this brochure where the DE750W is mentioned as a marketable item (vented or non-vented).

 

[swestoyz]

Specs - including the Combination.

I'll take an A902 and DE750W in Turquoise - please!

Loved it. This is just what i like. Thanks Ben.

I wonder what the one from the deep tub intro was like?

Thats cool Ben! Thanks for posting all that! Larger families drank Kool-Aid in the summer back then.We never had soda pop or chips at our house unless my parents were hosting a party. Then us kids got the left over snack items the next morning. I think it was like that for most families that had more than a couple kids. (we had four) The mothers tried to make the most of the grocery dollars, so snacks and sodas were seldom purchased. Lots of Kool-Aid ,iced tea, crackers, and cookies from scratch though.

Wonder what dad was smoking in that pipe..... Oh yeah, the weed came a few years later. Like around 1966.

Sure is a "baby boomer" sales flyer. I am sure that is what the marketing people were targeting with "the family" shown in every page.
