Yay! I've wanted a minty one of these for a long time; it's the vacuum my next door neighbor had when I was little. Definitely my favorite Eureka! I saw the handle sticking up from behind a table--low an behold it was that model! Yay!! It's gonna need a good scrubbing (smoker's house), but I have no doubt it will clean up just wonderfully!

Dishwasher money shot please!
That dishwasher looks like it is possibly a Westinghouse or White-Westinghouse product. If not, probably a rare D&M product of some brand. The control panel looks too conservative and unflashy to be a Kenmore lol.
Fred, I remeember seeing that vac in the stores. It's one of my most favorite color schemes of vacs from that era.

I love that house it came out of, although it's one of the milder examples of Mid Century Modern. The vacuum and that dishwasher are to die for!
Wow!
<span style="font-family: georgia,palatino; font-size: large;">You guys are having fun and good luck!</span>
<span style="font-family: georgia,palatino; font-size: large;">I knew that was a Lady Kenmore the second I saw the picture! </span>
<span style="font-family: georgia,palatino; font-size: large;">I have not seen that model in 100 years! </span>
<span style="font-family: georgia,palatino; font-size: large;">Can't wait to see the insides again!</span>
<span style="font-family: georgia,palatino; font-size: large;">Congratulations on the neat finds!</span>

Good catches!
Robert, when you can.....I'd be grateful for a shot of the cycle buttons.
Fred...that is one nice Eureka.

Ding Ding Ding!
Wow, I'm feeling pretty good about myself. I spotted the LK wording on that dishwasher right away!
What do I win?

wow, I cannot believe I was so close yet so far away in my assessment.
That Eureka really brings back memories. My mother used to clean a nearby church to make a little pocket money when I was a kid and I used to help her vacuum with one just like that!
I've always wanted to play with a Roto-Rack
Its a 1965 Lady Kenmore, 150 degree model. There was also a 180 degree model, I suspect all I would have do to change that is change the thermostat.
The inside looks like very little use, no rust in the sump what so ever.
I'll get better pictures later on in the weekend when I have time.

That dishwasher is wonderful! What a great find. Money shot! Money shot!
I have a very similar cleaner in red/rust color scheme - they are really good cleaners.
Sales here were rather bleak - only found the perfect wife:

Thank you for sharing.
Ralph, you win a self-congratulatory pat on the back. If you are unfamiliar with the technique, any politician and most managers will be able to show you how.
Robert, in the catalog, the 180F machine in the builtin version used 220 volts and had that double wrapped heating element like in John's KM DW with the 180F water button. I could make out the words LK on the door, but have never seen such an understated LK anything. You would almost expect the absence of panel hoopla to be made up for by bells or chimes to signal things happening. Do you suppose the brown on the control panel is nicotine from the air or the user's fingers or just dirt buildup? I wonder if the vinyl used in 1965 was still turquoise?

Greg,
Forget the wife...I want her stove!
That washer is mildly intriguing. It would take a lot of effort to rustle up the resources I would need to go and collect it however. I am also not a fan of Avocado.
