Kenmore, with the lid reversed!

 

[delaneymeegan]

They did have reversible washer lids. There were rubber plugs in the hinge holes on what ever side was opposite the hinges. I think this hinging option was only available on certain upper scale machines.

 

[DADoES]

 
Yes, I know the lids were reversible.  It's just a tad unusual to see one that has been done.

It appears to be a 1957 Lady Kenmore.

Where is Mansfield?

Central Ohio.

I don't believe this is a Lady Kenmore, I think it is the model down.  You can tell by the K emblem along the trim on the front of the machine.  If it was a Lady K it would be the bust of a woman instead of the K.

 

Here's a thread to when Robert found the NIB one years ago:

Did anybody get that Mansfield washer?

Did anybody get that late 50's washer in Mansfield at the top of the post?

 

[ken]

I replied to the ad and never got a response.

 

[ovrphil]

It was probably sold before and they never bothered to delete the ad? Sorry, Ken!

Thanks for the info on the 57(?) Kenmore

I have a near match for the dryer and I'm looking for the washer... I hope it didn't go to the dump.

 

[delaneymeegan]

hmmmm? trying to remember.....

 

 

What does the "scoots" button do on an early to mid 70s Lady K. washer?

 

Or could it be found on the dryer?

 

[scoots]

The "Scoots" button was only available on the Double Delux Lady Kenmores. Not only did it reduced wash time by 30%, but magically also turned laundry into lace.
