Leon, amazing!! I love the fact your 1958 Simpson has its matching mate dryer, a nice looking dryer too. the panel reminds me a little bit of toe POD Hotpoint washer. Nice to see another Maytag (in the appearance of a Wilkins Service) machine. The arrangement style of the buttons and knobs is very reminiscent of the 1980s 20 pound Jenn Aire Norgetag washer. And finally, that Frigidaire may be modern, but the arrangement of the two control dials is very reminiscent of the 1955 Imperial washer over here. the two small control knobs on either side of the panel and even the little reset button. congratulations!! |

Well,
That's the dilemma, keep it as it is or at least use it for some washing....i'm not sure. However, i defintely won't use the wringers.....that paper needs to be preserved as it is. All i know of the history is that i bought it off some farmers who once owned a 2nd hand store and bought it home with them when they closed the store. Cheers Leon |

Wonderful finds, Leon! That Frigidaire is so fun, what a great way to get the washing done - economically! It would be easy to save the suds for another load too, plug the drain hose and spin out the first load and then pump the water back in for washing the second.
A Maytag with a heater and a side-opening lid, too bad shipping is so crazy expensive!
Is the wringer tub aluminum and painted on the outside? Unused! Congrats on all the new additions. |
