So Don.... how long before these beauties are ready for their full spread, photographic debut?

  Action shots are of course expected!

Don must just be getting over the vapors of acquiring these.

There must be some adjustment and medication required after finding something like this.

I would be a basket case (although life makes me a basket case in general)

I will admit I would love to hear the sounds of those machines in actions .

Never never before...

Never have seen these VERY cool consoles. NIB--Oh MY! "So beautiful,no words..."

Thank you for sharing and enjoy!

I know the second tier GE 1960 I got from

Gansky has more flexibility than theTOL line did!!

I checked - that's real 'golt' on those dials !!!!!
Golt hasn't been used in years !!!

Permanent Press Refills

Use the lowest water level, then you can enjoy the show without using a gazillion gallons. When Whirlpool Mark XII came and the PP cycle did its third drain, I thought it was broken. That's when the pounding on the front door started. Then after the fourth and fifth dump and the pounding got louder, I thought, "Why, the world has gone mad!"

By the sixth and final dump, they broke right through the front door. The dreaded water nazis. Shucks. Luckily I had a flame thrower at the ready to subdue them. But Don's doctrine says his beauty can gulp up to 7--SEVEN-- PP refills. Surely, these are end times. Gadzooks! What eva shall we do?

WOW!!!! What beautiful machines! That washer and dryer are some of the best built machines that were ever made!!! It is how Kenmore machines were in more homes than any other.

Wonders never cease!

The close-ups are fabulous; everything is simply gleaming. Loved seeing how the suds model hoses are piped. And the people--you all look literally awestruck and reverent!

Thanks so much, Jeff, for sharing the glory. A big hello to everyone.

Just Incredible!

Not a spec of oil or corrosion under there! Simply gorgeous!

I would have saved the boxes though. Tipped gently on their sides to open the bottom flaps, pull out slightly, then right the machine, and slide the intact box off.

I am speechless with wonder and tingling all over my chest, neck, and arms!!.  To see that virgin bakelite rotoswirl preggo agitator.  Brings back such fond memories of the 2 Kenmores that had this same agitator when I was 5-8 years age. I've never seen a new dryer drum of this style, all I ever saw were drums that had been well loved by their families.  Greg, you're gonna have to give me an indepth discussion of this experience.  I'm glad to see all of y'all got to experience this together.  Don, "Madame Kenmore" can't hold  candle to you!!

 

I look forward to ALL the literature/documentation being placed on ephemera.
