Never Forget the Important Role

Washing Machines play in East - West Relations!! Laundry = Politics! Da!

 

[toploader55]

Oh Jon...

Great Find.

Where on earth did you run into that ? Thrift store in Chatham or "East"ham ?

 

[gansky1]

KGB sphere! LOL

It would be interesting to know the economics of these machines. Who could afford them, cost, market saturation, etc. You have a lot of research ahead, Jon!

How Nice to Know....

....That Soviet citizens were spared the excesses of decadent 1967 Western fashion!

Gorky Park....Here we come....Land invasion by Automatic Was

Ah Sputnik ~ I love the clothes, the "Worker" pants and the Siberian sweater. Look at the size of the words 18 Letters! at the bottom of the electrix spampata.

How 'bout the SOS distress signal secretly embedded atop the front-loader. Help indeed anytime Kruschev and Nixon are together.

Nice expression on Tricky Dick, huh?

Interesting fill hose

# 23 at the bottom back, just like on the early Unimatics.

This is an amazing find Jon, makink for goot verker tauts.

Note that . . .

Madame Washnik as illustrated in Reply 5 does not have a pearl necklace, or any jewelry aside from tiny earrings! Clearly the illustrator could never have had a career in the West.

Boris and Natasha's laundry appliance

I think that word is more like "Nusmury". I have a cousin who is a Russian translator who may be able to do this for us.

 

Apparently, the thing that impressed Kruschev on that visit with Nixon was the size of our corn cobs. But he seems to be interested in that GE combo as well. What's the box of SOS doing up there? Geez, domestic diplomacy.

 

[jetcone]

Somebody had a sense

of humor!! SOS indeed! I just noticed to Nixon's left is Breznyev many years before he assumed power in the 1970's!

 

No Pearls FOR YOV!!

[chestermikeuk]

Great find Jon

 

[jetcone]

[retropia]

Just like the Soviet fashion show ... is very nice!

 

[philr]

Are there soviet collectors here?!

 

I'd like to see what kind of automatics they issued for those who had cars like that!
