To me it is clearly a D&M. Weren't other Gibson prioducts a part of the White Consolidated Indutries / Westinghouse family of engineering? a/k/a White-Westinghouse. |

Yup, it's D&M. Reminds me of very similar Tappan from the early to mid-1980s. If memory serves me right, all that "stuff" to the right of the timer dial are status indicator lights for different phases of the cycle. It also reminds me of what the very first non-rotorack Kenmores looked like with that timer dial, which was 1975 or 1976. also not sure if this has a rising tower with full-size spray arm on the top (think imitation Maytag--or Nate's old Magic Chef) or if it's the more std. configuration with spray arm underr top rack.
