That looks like a lighted control panel on that Zenith dryer. And by the color of it,I am going to guess that it was made between 1958 and 1963. Does anyone know exactly what years Zenith was in the laundry business and were these actually Zenith made machines, or rebadged something elses? |

In 1957 I believe, Consumer Reports tested a Caloric dryer (GAS of course).It was just a flattop,no console. |

That Zenith dryer is one of the coolest old appliances I've seen in a long while. Can't help but wonder what the washer must have looked like inside. My family were fans of Zenith TV's and radio's but I never remember seeing any other Zenith appliances in the greater NYC area. You've inspired me to do some research. Thank you for posting that picture.
