This site used to have old 1950's Consumer Reports Magazines. Or maybe they are still there somewhere. Were they removed? Copyright problem? I wanted to look up old reviews of 1950's machines including the prices. That bolt down Kenmore was in one of the issues as was the Maytag AMP and Bendix.
Hey Martin, as for the Consumer Reports, yes there are copyright issues with that. I am working with them to see if I can get permission to upload articles to the Ephemera Library. I got permission from old owners of Consumer Bulletin however a while back to scan their old issues. They were a competitor of Consumer Reports for decades. See the link below, lots of great issues and more to come...
Robert this is such great reading. Thank you, I just cant put this stuff down!
I saw some interesting things like the Stiglitz gas dryer page 82 and the Fowler electric top load dryer page 100. Does anyone have info and specs on this stuff?
Thanks for answering regarding Consumer Reports. I wanted to check the accuracy of my brain in thinking the articles used to be here. I will check the Consumer Bulletins, they look like fun. Martin
