A big thank you goes out to John (jakins) who was kind enough to send me the owners manual to his gorgeous 1955 GE Mobile Maid dishwasher that he recently found so I could add it to the Ephemera Library.
I also added a wonderful KitchenAid brochure for the 19 series dishwashers. The third manual I added is the owners manual to a dishwasher I've never see or heard of before, the Beam. This was marketed by the Beam company in Iowa, but I have no idea if Beam made this dishwasher themselves or if it was outsourced to someone else. It has a wash arm that I've never seen before. If anyone knows more about it, please share the knowledge with us! This is the same Beam company that produced parts for Speed Queen washers and made the Beam Central Vacuum System as well. |

A question was raised in another thread about how you read downloads from Automatic Ephemera on an iPad. I just posted step by step instructions in that thread, I love having all this Ephemera on my iPad...

I wonder if Beam did not produce that dishwasher for Montgomery Ward in that timeframe...reason is there is a picture in the 1967/8/9 Consumer Reports with a Wards toploading dishwasher which had a difficult to access detergent dispenser, yet its features didn't match any of the other brands...D&M had the detergent dispenser on the back wall near the hinge, but this looks like in the front. From those ratings, it didn't seem that TL Wards was Frigidaire (even if F/L was).
