Closer to a BOL and a re-badged GE with a Taylor Avenue backsplash. Probably from the lower end of the 1974 catalog. |

What an interesting little bit of history to pack away. Appliance history is full of so many twists, turns and what ifs. I actually loathed history as a subject, but older now is mostly interesting. So thanks for that one, Tom! Appliance Park..did it reopen before GE sold off their appliance division? I thought they did. Oh well, that's one for me to research.

I like this transitional design... Beats the GE-clone Hotpoint evolved into, even when it was becoming a General Electric-acquisition...
Wonder how the next-to-lowest-line model is available with a standing pilot light and the most-Bottom-of-the Line model isn't... (Or that it is even available in a Gas model, while all the other models only have Electronic Ignition for lighting the gas; via Glow Bar, I'm assuming...)
This is available in the Automatic Ephemera selections, as well as the con-current Hotpoint Complete Automatic Washer Catalog, too...
