The machine in the 1963 ad was the last of the slant-front models. The Westinghouse square cabinet front loader with side-swing door was introduced in 1964, along with the new Westinghouse-made top loader and the reintroduced front-loading Spacemates. Westy was marketing an Easy-built top loader by 1963 when the POD slant front model was out. These Easy/Westy top loaders have to be among the rarest of machines. The 64 line up was a dramatic redesign and I've always liked the backsplash control panels on these models. Here is an ad from March 1964. |
