I'm going to guess a Wizard (the Western Auto brand that I think was made by Gambles) - the tub lid opening to the side like that was not a common thing in those days and I seem to remember a 1957 ad showing the Wizard model with a tub opening like this..
That's my SWAG (scientific wild-assed guess... |

No, that is a friend of mine as a baby. She was posting family pics on FB. As soon as I saw it, I thought "What baby? All I see is a mystery washer!"
My mom said we had a Norge in our first apartment, but no pics exist. In another apartment (I think), we had a standard, boring WP. I have a feeling she didn't know or care what brand of washer we had, but it was probably WP all along. |

For some reason, the pic is so captivating, maybe because the woman reminds me of my young grandmother to whom I was devoted.

This was cool to play........anyone else have a pics to guess?.....
this takes you back in time, life was so simple.....many of us wished for different washers as we grew up, but many were happy to just have one that was automatic, or have one period!.....not the biggest or best, just glad they had it! many kids today don't know what it was like in the days before automatics..... |

My guess is that it is a Hotpoint. The lid and tall console are giveaways. --Charles-- |
