Yes, that was the beginning of Kenmore's transition to the new control panel style and the ex-large capacity drum. The control panel style first came out in 1974. I believe the black-face control panels came out either that fall of 1975 or spring of 1976. My parents got a 70 series set for the lake house late winter/early spring of 1976.

:-( I would LOVE to, but I have to move to a teeny-tiny apt in the city for two or three years. I'll be sneaking in the circa 1990 GG FF as it is! I am sure you will all SHREIK in delight when you see the B4 photos of THAT upcoming place! Not sure where exaclty where yet, but it will be a mess. They always are. |

Ok then fine about the washer. Get a storage unit for a machine that you will say-- Oh if only I had bought that one when I could have. Why do you HAVE to get a small apt. for 2 - 3 years? Will it really be a mess and a lot of work. Do you have to pay real high rent then clean up someone elses crap? Ok I'd take the Kenmore and find a nice small house, say Amityville - Mellville - Huntington?????? Steve |

I'll scan the page of the catalog tonight, that style washer came in two widths, and was pair-able with one dryer. I had a neighbor who if I reemmber right had that same model machine. |

Looking at the picture in the auction, the additional knobs would have been mounted on the diagonal strip slightly above the timer knob. |
