ABC Superelectric Washer

Talk about a coincidence - looks like one of the washers in the latest vintage appliance ads thread!  

 

Looks like it needs a bit of work...

Hmm, I think I have the EXACT ad for this one...

<span style="font-size: medium;">Let me start digging!</span>

Found it!

<span style="font-size: medium;">It was introduced in 1917, the ad is from 1918. This is actually an H-Axis (Revolving drum) washer. I'm not sure, but I think A-B-C actually pioneered this type of wash action. </span>

Hi Paul, Gee, I wish this was an ABC o matic. When Mike had the wash in, I hosted one that next day and you were here. I have not been able to find and ABC o Matic, darn it. Gary

NEAT!

I've always wanted one of these drum-type wringers...

Gary:  Hi there!  Hope you are doing well!  I remember the visit to your charming Victorian house well!  Seems to me an ABC Gas dryer was revived while I there;  I keep looking and you never know - an ABC-O-Matic just may turn up....
