Is the 55 the beginning of Filter-Flo?

I think this is the last GE with a fresh-water overflow wash/rinse? Maybe the BOL didn't have it. I've always thought these were beautiful machines - simple style! Congrats on the new finds!!
That Hotpoint dryer is so classy! I have the same GE dryer in storage. Glad to see there is a match set out there! Congrats!

Graham, after you and Rich left I remembered I have the owners manual for the washer in my stash of manuals. Will dig it out and save it for you the next time you visit...... Jimmy

But isn't this a solid tub machine? Those are always fun.
I always love a spin/overflow drain.
Nice set

The dryer you got from me Graham, has a two position heat switch, HI or LO. The other dryer you posted a picture of, which is a slightly higher line model has a variable heat control, similar to a 1955 Filtrator dryer.
Congratulations Graham! Your collection is growing by the day! <:
My mother had the same model GE dryer. I recall a drawer on the bottom that had a screen inside it. The drawer had to be pulled open, then you simply lifted the screen out and brushed it of with a lint brush that came with the dryer. The dryer was still in use when I left home in 1973.
Graham, could you please post some pixs of the washer and dryer interior? Would love to see the steel dryer drum again, and very much want to see what the washer basket looks like.
Thanks!

Graham, your collection is growing by leaps and bounds - and this is one kickin' set! If you could - the shots of the washer and dryer drum and wash basket would be of great interest!
