General Electric 1962

Neat!

Thanks for sharing these scans, Lawrence! I had no idea the SU-102 even existed... Interesting that the top-loader had the swing up top rack - could this have been the introductory year for that feature??

and what did I spy with my little eye?

Thanks to Lawrence and his 1962 scans I have discovered that the  next-to-TOL model carried over to 1962 with the fabulous "Rotary Fabric Dial"! Interestingly enough, the perverts at GE discontinued this feature on the 950 in the middle of the freakin' model year!!! A new Holy Grail for me to dream about finding in some church's basement: a 1962 Filter-Flo with a Mini-Basket (first one, in fact), a bleach dispenser, a lighted dial and control panel and a rotary fabric dial (although, Robert's blue one from 1961 is still prettier IMHO):
