an interesting find for sure, but isn't it more likely to be late 70s than 1950s?
Clues are the fake woodgrain, plastic trim, avocado green colour???
Wringers were available here till the early 80s and I'd assume USA the same...

....I asked the seller a question...........

Are you sure you didn't mean to start the bidding at $20 ? Where in the world would you get the idea that this washer is worth $2K??? Mark

Can't wait for the reply. I'll post it when I do!

LightedControls,

You do know LA has one of the highest per capita gun ownership rates in the United States? *LOL*

It's amazing that washer is still in the condition it is. A warehouse in Opelousas in the summer: 100+ degrees, 100% humidity=RUST. They want too much for the thing.

It's a WA Wizard Citation. I guess TOL? Probably late 50s early 60s.
