Are these early 70's? Not sure but they look nice as well!

1977 - 1978
Yep that must be the vintage of these machines. I would venture the washer is of 1977 vintage, and the dryer a 1978. Notice the washer has the chrome handle on it's lid, and the dryer has the plastic handle. I remember seeing the plastic handled models make their debut in the appliance store showrooms while the last of their chrome handled predecessors were still on the floor. The newer models looked just like the older ones, except for the handle. I love those 70s large capacity models. I think the one in this picture has the bed of nails type lint filter. My preference is the brush filter. You got awesome waterfall drama, although they are tougher to clean.
Have a good one,
James
