Happy Saturday Pierre!

 

If you are talking about the machine surrounded by the family in today's POD, it is coppertone. Sometimes colors skew a little differently from monitor to monitor. Coppertone as a color started in some brands when the other colors offered were white, pink, yellow and turquoise and continued through avocado and harvest gold. Sometimes some brands called it coffee but, whatever the name and whether shaded or solid, it was brown.

 

I wonder if that is the father standing behind the mother.

This ad if from 1968, and in addition to the Edged Coppertone shown in the ad, it came in White and Edged Avocado. Depending on the exact time the ad was released, it MAY have also been available in Edged Sapphire (Blue) and Edged Fawn (tan). Those two colors were available for a very short time in '67, and may have been around into '68 as well, and was only or certain models. I think Whirlpool got Harvest Gold in late '68 or early '69.
