Westinghouse had some talented graphic designers. That control panel is a work of art. Some local buddies who are graphic designers talk about the Westinghouse logo as a seminal piece of GD history, up there with the UPS "Big Brown" campaign.

Westinghouse's late sixties/early seventies (pre-divestiture) designs must be timeless, because they look great, even now. 

Everything was right about them.

Neat how the back of the drum looks kinda like current Frigidaire offerings do.

Through out the 50s all the way to the end around 1974 were some of the best ever. I especially like the modern look of the 60s appliances and on.

It was just too bad that their appliances were known to most consumers to be troublesome even in the 50s.  Even big builders that were obsessed with cost like Levitt abandoned WH in the early 60s.

Hi Greg, yes the dryer back looks a lot like some current FD dryers because it is basically the same dangerous dryer design, many mechanical parts are still interchangeable. I rebuild several of these a week and the back shroud on the rear of the drum is usually filled with brown scorched lint, I should take pictures of all the burned lint I see in these dryers.
