"Think pink! Think pink!
When you shop for summer clothes. Think pink! Think pink! If you want that quelque de chose. Red is dead, blue is through, Green's obscene, brown's taboo. And there is not the slightest excuse for plum or puce - or chartreuse." Okay, so I'm giddy. Today I received a package from Alan bigalsf containing the coveted pink control panel for my KDS-55 KitchenAid Superba VariCycle dishwasher, the portable/convertible version of the KDS-15 undercounter machine. The panel color was actually described as "Antique Gold" in KA brochures of the time, but it looks pink in person, due to the rose-beige color of the plastic indicia inserts. The panel Alan sent means I can banish the Ye Olde Fayke Woode Graine panel presently on the machine, which is more of a relief than I can tell youse. The photo below shows the kind of panel I got from Alan at the top, and the kind of panel it will be replacing at bottom. The bottom photo doesn't really look like it's Ye Olde Fayke Woode Graine, but that's what the dark areas are. Many public thanks to Alan, who has done me the best of all possible turns! |
