I'm not an expert but...
I would say in picture;
1. Whirlpools (upfront & center)
G.E. Filter Flo (upper back left?)
2. FRIGIDAIRE by Genteral Motors

Go Christina!
You know your machines!
I spotted some additional items in Pic 2. Behind the washers is a portable/convertible Whirlpool dishwasher. To it's left is another portable dishwasher. I'm pretty sure it's a Whirlpool too, a toploader (but i'm not 100% positive).
Additionally, I think the washer & dryer on the end cap (center left of pic) is a late model Blackstone set? Hard to tell, but the tall cabinet with a chrome door handle on the dryer is reminiscent of their design. Can someone with a better eye confirm this?

Oh to be able
To buy any of these brand new, anything shown is a million times better than the worthless garbage sold today.The green Frigidaire washer shown is like the one my mother bought new in69 except ours was white, It replaced a 55 pulsamatic.

Hey hey hey...
Alan,
The only reason I could identify the washers that I did was thanks to this great group of members!
Never did I think I would be able to recognize a washer by brand, except for maybe a center-dial MAYTAG. And I must say, I'm getting pretty damned good at telling the difference between the model numbers too! But only the (I believe they're called?) 2nd generation center-dial Maytags from 1966-1980.

The set at the center left of the picture on the end display appear to be BOL whirlpools with the controls in the box design.

I love the Whirlpools in the first picture with the big timer dials. These machines were so much better than the machines Whirlpool makes today.
