Yellow 06's are RARE!! A yellow 06 HOH that's gas makes for a really rare combo. *Sigh* too far as usual.........

once there is enough of something people won't notice there are more there,I have noticed this with all of the vacuums i have they keep multiplying and just rotate through them so everyone forgets if it is something new or not. So unless Mother is keeping count she probably won't notice Jed.

If she asks, give her a WTF facial expression and say "HUH? They've been here for a while now."

FYI Maytag replaced Castillian Yellow with California Gold (aka Harvest gold).

Wow - yellow! Very rare, only available in the first models of the '06 line (906,806,606,406 - 206,106 in white only) and then turquoise and yellow were gone by '68-69 when the avocado and gold colors came out. (I find no mention of "Castillian" yellow anywhere in Maytag doctrine though??)

Don has a turquoise set of 806's - just beautiful and so strange to see them on a set that "new" as most mfrs. had dropped the pastels around this time.

One word - BEAUTIFUL! Cory - it is one of the few colors you don't have yet! ;-) I actually prefer these over a turquoise set.

Well obvioulsy then you never saw this Gansky

appliguy's profile picture
it is a page from a Maytag brochure Rickr posted here a couple years back.....and it proves that Castillian yellow out lived turqouise....GE did not introduce harvest until 1967 and they were the first to have it..just like they were the first to introduce avacodo in 1966 and as I said before Castillian Yellow was repalces with California Gold ...Maytags version of Harvest Gold....PAT COFFEY

I love Robert's new search, you can find anything! Plus it saves on duplicating images for precious server space ;-)

Link below takes us back to 2005 when Rick originally posted the brochure....

What a wonderful set-I remembered that name Castillian Yellow from somewhere-maybe I'd seen it on another brochure or at the Maytag factory in Iowa. I always thought the yellows that were offered were so much fresher and nicer than the later harvest gold. I'm actually much fonder of coppertone and avocado retroactively than I am of harvest gold.

I remember Spanish Avocado for Maytag, but I'm pretty sure by the 70s "Cordoba Copper" and "California Gold" were called something else.
