This stove could be nicknamed "Dottie" The burners are color coded, each with a ceramic colored dot that corresponds to each push button control. A Hotpoint exclusive!

Well then, if that wasnt enough, lurking in my side driveway is my van, just back from a trip to Wash DC with ANOTHER full load of stuff........I havent even begun to unload it yet, I think the guys in the white coats and srt8jackets are ready to come and get me...........Will post pics of those finds soon. There ARE some washers in this stash and they ARE matched sets!

No room for a clothesline for all the dryers!

Those Speed Queen dryers were certainly well-built machines, they just LOOK solid!

Nice haul, Jimmy!

Even though that Frigidaire dryer is BOL, or close, I think it's my favourite of this batch.

Great Haul Jimmy! I know the feeling about needed to stop, must stop, can't stop.

Thanks Robert. Anything here that you want or that interests you? Speak up dont be shy! I certainly cant keep all of these for myself........The green 1-18 Frigidaire dryer in fact I picked up to part out if need be. Parts for those are just starting to get a little scarce.....

Re: The Hotpoint

First time I've seen a 30" range with a deep-well cooker. Also explains the separate broiler to the left of the main oven. Nice looking stove!

Jimmy,
Incredible finds! Can't wait to see what is in the van. I am sure that you just did not have the energy left to unload it from moving everything else around!
I just love your Hotpoint Range. Great looking! The color coded burners are just too cool!
I also love the Speed Queen gas dryer. My Grandmother had this exact model. It was a great dryer. My favorite thing to do was open the cover and watch the gas burner ignite! Do you know how long Speed Queen made there gas dryers with the burner on top? What a great design, for those of us who like to watch!
Thanks for sharing!
Brent

Jimmy! Your Hotpoint stove has all of its color buttons in the surface units and its original bake element! That's a real find. Hotpoint improved that model greatly over the previous year's model. It had one wide door, the narrow oven and the small broiler next to it. I guess you were not supposed to try to broil in it while baking in the oven next to it. They tried to hang on to the deepwell in the 30" range and it just was not feasable. Another year or two and they had their first wide ovens in both the 30 and 40 inch ranges.

The turquoise dryer is the mate to my white washer.

The timer on the WH dryer shows how they were designed to operate on 110 volts. The timer goes up to 2 hours. You selected Low heat which energized one heating element and just gave it lots of time. That model must have been a year or two newer than my mom's 65 Laundromat with the recessed side swing door, but it looks like a fairly close match.

How do you identify the oven element as original? And would
a built in oven have the same type element? Thanks
