Wow Graham, I suspect 1960, I've never seen that one before.

But all the '60 machines are rounded front and contols on right side of panel. Maybe '61?

I think maybe a 1959. I've never seen anything like this either. I"d get it for the sheer unseen uniqueness.

It is unique.. I might venture to say 1957-1958ish...

I'm going to say 1959 as well. The control panel resembles Ross's machine.

I have the 59 catalog, all the controls on those are on the right side too.

This looks more "squared" than the earlier designs, but we don't have a full monty picture either.

Now you have to go get this dryer, Graham - or at least more information - we have to know the truth!

My grandmother had the matching washer

I'd say more from 1955-56.


Get it!

I'd venture to say it is a MOL 58 model. It's a good looking dryer.

lint filter

Where's the lint filter on that dryer?

It's missing from the top of the machine, and that's the main thing that I find confusing.

I'm guessing it's cheap model too, maybe a 1960...and maybe it's...foreign? Canadian, perhaps?

In 59, there was a low-end dryer that didn't have the top-access filter, it was probably the box thing on the back of the machine.
