Thanks!

I love Betty's elocution. And that curved counter to the right, as well.

Westinghouse commercial featuring my Dream Machines.......

Found this Westinghouse commercial on YouTube from 1956 featuring my Dream Machines - the 1956 Westinghouse Laundromat Deluxe and its matching Clothes dryer. This is the exact same set that my mom's mother had and, as I've mentioned many times here on this site, I used to stand in front of that 1956 Laundromat Deluxe with a huge 6 volt (square battery - really dating myself now)flashlight shining it into the machine as it washed and spun. I was totally absorbed in the moment everytime I would go to her house and hear the machine running or saw that it was wash day - had three of those a week - Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Those were the days!! Still looking for this elusive set - if I ever find a set in good shape still working I would be exceedingly pleased and that would probably end up being my only vintage set of laundry appliances.

What a gem! I love the 'movie' graphic Betty uses very advanced for 1956 BUT the happy Russian "Da!" peasant woman doing her wash is OVER THE TOP!!
