I know what it is! Although I can't really tell the year...is it a 1958 model? Live-action footage, who would have thought! |

Yes it's a 1958 Pulsamatic, and it was my Grandmothers washer when I was little that I could watch for hours! She had the WD-58 (middle model of the Pulsamatics). My grandfather was an avid reader of Consumer Reports so its no coincidence that they got a Frigidaire washer in '58 as the WCI-58 (TOL Unimatic) was rated #1. I can't exactly tell in the commercial if its the Deluxe or Super Model, but it sure is fun to see. I love the fake outdoor scene behind the window with the wash blowing in the wind! |

I almost spit my coffee across the room when Groucho said " that's one red cap you'd be happy to tip" or was it "one red tip you'd be happy to cap?" |
