I was wondering the same thing. I have never seen this P.O.D. before.
Seems that any Philco Machine especially Top Loaders are as rare as Hen's teeth.
The only Philcos that I know in existence are Robert's, Jetcone's and I'm pretty sure Sharple's has one of the "Juke Box" Front Loaders.
It seems they are about as common as ABC O' Matics. |

1956-58. 59 would have been the first year for the "blades of water" version.
There have been a few of these agitator, ball-point balance washers around over the years in collector's hands but I don't know the status of any now. Probably one in Virginia guys' collection and perhaps one in Ohio? Never have seen one of these washing a load of clothes, just testing one in the driveway once. |
