I don't know much about the Hamilton brand of washers and dryers but I think they were made by a distinct company, not related to Hamilton-Beach (they made mostly smaller appliances). I can't say I ever heard of Hamilton marketing their appliances in Canada, either. Beach was a Canadian brand name - I still see Beach ranges turn up in the local used appliance stores! I think they were related to the Findlay company (they made ranges too)... |

the Sun-E-Day ozone lamp. My aunt (who coincidentally lived in Pittsburgh at the time) had one. |

...has some very old Cissell gas fired units with the burner on the top and perf drums. They still take dimes and 20 min or less for a load. The access panels are all charred from 40+ years or heat at the burners. They're so cool, it's a very old working laundry lots of old stuff, making a new post on it. -Tim |

Were Blackstone dryers also made by Hamilton, or just built simularily? Were they almost silent, with the small exhaust duct? |

Under the Hamilton script. "One of the White Consolidated Industries". Ugh! |

I just blew up the pic of you wringing your hand--pretty wild and funny ! BUT WHAT is that gorgeous turquoise agitator in your washer? It looks part Spiralator, part Hotpoint fountain-flo. What brand is the washer and is their an American equivalent. Thank you for your time. Great scan. Love the giant eyeball dials; they look like they're spying out of the lower left corners. Mickey |
