Pretty

Never noticed the gas flame on the timer; I didn't realize that GE did that.

Or am I mis-seeing something (lower right corner of the timer)?

looks like it would be a perfect match to my grandmother's old green washer.

No, it is a little flame, the "natural gas" logo or symbol of the time.

Seem to recall many natural gas dryers during the 1970's and 1990's had that little symbol. Mother Dear's Whirlpool dryer did IIRC, as did many of the ones saw in family and friend's homes.

The point of the thing I never found out. I mean the persons purchased and whomever installed the dryer surely knew it wasn't electric....

I wouldn't put it past the American Gas Association to pay the mfgrs to put on a bit of jewelry to differentiate the gas from the "other heating fuel"
