THAT'S IT!! that the exact same Norge that aws delivered 12/23/64 (I don't think it was 1963, but could have been--I start doubting as I get older). there was ONE difference though--ours didn't have the Filter-Flo type of filter pan and filter water stream in that direction, ours had the filter pan attached at the back and filter stream pointing down just like the Norge Jetcone has as well as that Money Norge Touch'n'Wash. Robert, is there more to this brochure? What's the copyright year on the brochure? There's got to be more to this brochure for sure. Please scan!! BTW, I started trying to destroy this washer within 18 moonths because I couldn't stand the preprogrammed cycles--particularly #5 (W'n'W durables with hot wash instead of warm) and the cottons colored (#4) was warm wash & cold rinse. #8 was specials/wool--the warm wash/warm rinse was fine, but it was slow/slow speed combination instead of slow wash fast spin speed.

Noticed some things

Well, I jsut saw the copyright date, 1963. Also, noticed on the panel it says NORGE14, ours said definitely NORGE15. Also note the pinkish-reddish section on the cycle display--ours dind't hve that. That cycle was most likely short/delicate. Notice the blue section as a lower part of that pinkish-reddish cycle. That most likelty was called the soak cycle (ala GE). Ours didn't have that complete pikinsh/reddish cycle. It just had soak cycle (for #1). Consisting of a 4 or 5 minute agitation and extract/suds flush/spin. Also noticed there was no mention of Cycle #8 in the brochure mentioning water usage, just 2-7. #1 was soak.

The overall styling still resembles my Monkey Norge!

I found a lower cabinet in better shape than the original for this machine, btw. It's painted, but I have not had time to switch it out yet.

The "summer home" is calling me again..... <:
