very interesting westy/wards
I have a 1962 fall/winter Wards catlogue, also a 1959 fall and winter. Interesting that both the 1959 and 1962 wards are square cabinets. In 1959 Wards had only the westy f/l (square cabinets) the BOL had 3 vanes and was called the "original tumbler", the TOL 1959 had 2 vanes at approx 12 o clock and 7 o clock and that potatoe pulley that is often mentioned here, the catalogue has a pic of it, wards called it an "eccentric wash cam". interesting the the 3 vane was rated at 9lbs, and the 2 vane with eccentric wash motion was rated at 11 lbs. The 62 also has 2 pages of norge appearing T/L laundry equipment and matching dryers. The T/L washers in the 62 book are of course solid tub machines. The 62 f/w catalogue has a best and better wards/westy f/l both are the eccentric, "potatoe drive"
