Late 50s GE Dishwasher find!!!!

I always loved the

DOTS IN THE WASH CYCLE!!

Yeah, What did they mean?

Tom:

"What did they mean?"

Just an easy visual reference that the machine was within the wash cycle. You didn't have to be close enough with good enough eyesight to read the wording, because the dotted area was unique.

P.S.: Am I the only one who noticed GE's thriftiness with the two ads shown? That's the same model in both, wearing the same heels and pearls in both, and the same dress in both, just in two different colors.

I want to make a snarky, gender-based comment about your EXCELLENT observation, but the ambiguity of your name,
has me tied in knots.

Oh, so humbled.

Don't.....

....Let the ambiguity stop you. Go ahead, take a chance.

You won me over, Sandy, and I'm sure you don't want that liability.

ours was....

...a sunshine yellow version in our Potomac house, 1960-1966....I loved the sounds this machine made! I am not sure why, but the tank could never roll back under the counter- we had to lean against it to latch it....sadly, I learned a year after we moved out, the motor failed, due to the water that drooled town the sides of the tank....wonder what they replaced it with?
