Amazing apps!
I still have a Roto-Flex agitator - they weren't ALL up for grabs ;-)

Fabulous work, Austin--Thank you so much
This so reminds me of a Lady Kenmore, and you figure WP had to have, at some point, the LK equivalent; this must be it, even down to the manual button on the dial=cancel. How exciting. Is there any way to get a close-up of the lid so we can see what the ten buttons signify?
I've only seen one Roto-flex in my life and had no clue it would be as powerful as is revealed in the rinse agitation video from our brother in Brazil.
What a nice Saturday night treat.
You rock, Austin.

WOAH - Get a load of these! Thanks for pulling the photos from Myspace Austin. What an awesome set - and I might add, what a cool house that they are in! I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like. If you guys don't mind me asking - how often did Whirlpool put a window in the dryer door?
What a set for the first weekend in May!

I believe this is the model that I saw in John Lefever's warehouse, which was an LMA, which would be 1964. That's also not the original knob on the washer's timer.
Austin ... remember what I mentioned to you in an e-mail a few days ago about a dryer with window door .... ?

Hey Ben
My Aunt Marge had a beautiful mid-sixties Whirlpool dryer in her kitchen with a stunning, large window in the door; it looked like a front loading washer.
She's the wonderful woman who weaned me on her Easy Spin.

Could be
Marge's was white, had the same style panel in blue and far fewer buttons.
HEY BUDDY go find out how to blow up the lid so we can spy on the key for the buttons.

Oops, Sorry Glenn, didn't see you
By the way, your work on the Calypso a month ago was absolutely stunning. Busy, I never got to post. The colors the water the stainless steel the giant wide jets the sheer power of the machine left me gasping. I had never seen one in operation. Egads! what a marvel. Thank You DOODADS.

WOW !
I never saw a "progammed cycle" Whirlpool before.
I would assume that the timer stops in the correct place according to the button that you press. But what is the "MANUAL" part of the timer for ?
It always seemed to me that some of Whirlpool 1960's styling was a little backwards. This '64 looks a little more modern than say a '67. The '64 has plastic knobs and in this case what looks like a woodgrain or brown background to the timer while a '67 has heavy all cast metal knobs and a plain silver background. Maybe it's just me.
What a great set !

Its cool they saved the chrome surgilator cap when they replaced the surgilator with a Kenmore str8 vane agitator.
Ed, "Programmed" Whirlpools like this existed from like 1959 or 19560 model year until this being last year or the next model year. "Manual" simply cancelled all buttons and allowed user to turn timer 360 degrees without having a "stop" in the way from a programmed cycle. This machine was so much like a Lady Kenmore, except the Whirlpool had the Super Washes.
Lid Instructions
Here's a shot of the lid instructions from the specimen in MD, which outlines the cycle detail. Note that Whirlpool refers to the agitation speeds as High, Medium, and Low. I think Kenmore typically designated them as Hi, Low, and Ex-Low.

Here's a close-up of the timer (although a bit fuzzy). Notice that the Low Agitation button is "integrated" into the Gentle cycle (Gentle starts at the right edge of the button), although I imagine it could used with any cycle. And note the minimal markings on the cycles -- no wash times and nothing at all outlining the sequences on Gentle or Wash-n-Wear.
