Hmmmm.... My Launderall theory doesn't seem to hold water... They look very regal. Something fit for a Queen perhaps??

I envy you lucky Jon!
I am still searching for a SQ washer to match my mid-late 1960s SQ dryer and I can't believe how scarce they became. SQ and Simplicity washers were quite popular in my area.
Now show us the controls and the rest!

They have a name
When Georgies grandfather bought them he asked his wife
" do you want a mink stole or new TOL Speed Queens "?
So she chose these !! Hence the name on the dryer !

No, a teaser... lol
No, a teaser... lol
Yes, because the top was hinged to tilt forward for service.
I think Eddy has this same washer?
Beautiful!

Jon, the dryer looks fantastic! Stainless-steel goodness! That 'Speed Dry' selection on the dryer dial looks interesting - let me know if you dim the streetlights when you use it... LOL
He needs to be slapped from Mass. to California for dragging this out. Or is this what a drag queen is?

That rainbow in the SS dryer drum might be heat-tint from overheating, LOL, no actually those older SQ dryers were not very likley to scorch clothing. The heating element and heater box were far enough from the clothing that these dryers were as unlikely as a WP dryer to cause clothing damage.
These old SQ dryers were built like tanks but were not real fast or great performers however, they tended to put in a lot of hours drying the poorly spun out loads from the typical American automatic washers of their time.
