Model 150 Blackstone Washer

[thistoo77]

Hi,
I have a Model 150 Blackstone washer built in the 1950's. I need to remove it from it's current location and I wanted to ask if it's worth selling or should it be scrapped for metal value? any help you can offer me would be appreciated.
Thank you,

OMG

Is this for real.....

I would be interested and I live in Mass!

I truly don't know what the value is so the best I can do is wait for you to tell me what you would be happy with.

Does it work?

Where in Mass are you?

Please keep me in mind.

The lid seal is there for a very good reason!

I have a 150!  It's a great washer and tons of fun to watch.  There's nothing like a Blackstone.

Cool machine Greg!

That does look like a fun machine! I've always been fascinated with the comparitively small opening/lid. Looks like an interesting 3-vane perforated agitator (in bakelite, I presume).

Remember a freind of my Moms had one of these when I was a kid-too little to see from the top-so she let me sit in front of it and watch the mechanism behind the twin front doors.Was interesting-kept me entertained while Mom and her did their things.Interesting lurk in the basement find!
