This is interesting...
Gambles and Western Auto both had a Coronado brand. Must not have lasted too long as by the mid-50's the Wizard took the stage at Western Auto.

YAY Greg--a Spiral Dashing Automatic--WONDERFUL !
And how about that ad copy boasting of a revolving agitator during spin which air conditions the clothes. Fabulous.
How elegant the BOL Zenith 200, so simple and inviting, and as clean as a cartoon.
There is a mention of one of the machines arcing at 212 degrees. Wondering if any other brands achieve such a degree of agitation.
I'll be taking this to bed to enjoy as I master the contents. Will I have to confess indulging in washer pornography? Thank you for taking the time.
Robert thanks for the riveting POD. The first thought was: a new quest for a Marquette. There must be life after Apex. You go, Indiana Jones!

Thanks for the great scans Greg!!!!
So there was a fluid drive as well in that Apex Automatic after all. No one knows for sure but it appears that Apex was producing a Beam style machine with some of their own designed parts like the fiberglass tub with balancing water pockets, etc. concurrently with their own Bouncing Basket design. The 1955 Marquette clearly has gone away from the fiberglass tub for a porcelain tub and the cabinet now is clearly made by Beam as well. Oh so many mysteries!

I'm ready for my Energy Star Slap
Did anyone else notice yesterday in the Marquette brochure that is says it gives a Hot Water Deep Rinse??? I assume that means if the water dial is set to hot (one would hope that is the way it was designed). There is nothing more delicious and scandalous than a hot rinse. I do it as a luxury once in a while for white towels and clothes.

How nicely put. I do it too, same as you, sometimes also with the sheets, and then hang them out steaming. I love it. But now I have to go back to the text and see how I missed the decadence. Must be like the Blackstone: unless you change them temp after a hot wash fill, you get a hot rinse.
The POD's are becoming amazing. Thank you for these oh-so-satisfying reads and pix.
