Next is 1952 thru about 57
I do have the 57-58 but the only difference is color and it has a beater ejector..the Westy is the one with the big plastic juicer, it is different in that the juicer and bowl are made together, so you dont have to worry with a seperate bowl.

Now for some more..
Westinghouse discontinued stand mixers late in the 50s or early 60s, but they did make a portable on a stand..this is from the mid 60s.

The box is well worn as she stored it in its box.

There were several versions of these..
This being the last one, about 58.Same basic works, just slightly different, these are some of the fastest most powerful hand mixers, but they look kind of boxy .

From 58 or 59 thru the late 60s
This was their mixer, not as durable as a Sunbeam of the same vintage, but much more powerful, the main issue with them is the plastic shrinks as they age, making the beater ejector stick, I have fixed mine but its tedious.

The neat thing..
About that juicer, is that is is marked with the amounts on the side,its a simple matter then to remove the juicer and pour out the juice already strained and measured.

Nice
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Thanks for sharing those pictures. </span>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">I have a set of Westinghouse bowls that I picked up at a garage sale some time ago but never saw (up close) the mixer that used them. I can remember seeing those mixers on the counters in Lucy's kitchen. The woman I bought the bowls from told me she had very fond memories of her family using their Westinghouse mixer. Apparently, they had a family ritual of making ice cream and she can remember her dad cracking egg after egg into the large bowl preparing the mixture. I guess the mixer was long gone but when she was cleaning out her parents' home she found the bowls. If I had memories like that I'd be more likely to want to keep them but I'm the sappy one in the family.</span>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Those mixers do look like they'd be fun to use. We were always more of a Sunbeam and GE family when it came to small appliances as my Dad worked for GE for some years when I was much younger. </span>
<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">My collection started with my Aunt's Model 10 and grew from there.</span>

Re Westinghouse
Westinghouse was well represented in my hometown of Lenoir NC, we had 2 popular dealers, Bernhardt Seagle Hardware co, and Leftwitch Electric Co, both sold tons of stuff..My uncle went to work at Leftwitches in 47 when he got out of the Army Air Corps,he and my Aunt.."Mothers Sister" married that fall, and she ended up with a bunch of Westinghouse products, the iron pictured, a Free Westinghouse sewing machine which she still has and I want!, amd first a Laundromat and a few years later a dryer, when they bought a new Maytag set in 67 we got the dryer which lasted into the early 80s..Lenoir had about any brand of appliance you wanted then, for a small town of about 12,000 or so, we had 2 Philco dealers, 1 Norge dealer, 3 Hotpoint dealers, 1 Crosley dealer, 2 GE dealers, 2 Frigidaire and 1 Monarch dealer, as well as 2 Maytag dealers and 1 Kelvinator, 1 Leonard and 1 Bendix dealer.The difference between then and now, all of them had a good reputation for service and honesty.
