If someone does not have to have these, I will bid on them for the museum, but I will wait to see if one of us wants them.

I BELIEVE, the most modern washer, the one with the oval type of window, is the same model that's featured on a POD where the pennies are flying out of the machine and are being caught in homemaker's apron.

What beauties!

I just love the style of the owner's manuals back then - from the cool illustrations, to the obligatory "welcome letters" from the Home Economics Director (or similar title)

I've been spending a lot of time with the Bosch dishwasher manual lately and, while informative, it's not a very fun experience. I keep losing my place, and turning to pages with the wrong language and that brings on horrible flashbacks to high school Spanish and college French (neither of which I even came close to mastering)

But worst of all: They printed one manual for all their models, so you don't know if the feature they are describing is on the model you own. Between that and the languages and all, it's very frustrating.

Tom,what kind of literature are you looking for? Somewhere I have the owners manual,the punch type warranty card,and some other literature for a 61 Frigidaire 'fridge. They're yours if you want'em.

Glad you bid on the items. Knew there were several "Westinghouse/Westy" members, but wasn't sure which ones would potentially have the need.

Best of luck,
