Dear All It has taken a while to do and needs a bit more doing to it, but i have finally put together a UK vintage washing machine web site, which you can view at the link below. www.laundra-mat.net... I want to develope the web site more, by adding clips of machines, as and when time lets me, and upload literature which i have. This project has taken about a year to do on and off, but if you have anything you wish to add then please advise and i am open to any suggestions or if there is anything you want to see in more detail. I think this is the only vintage washing machine web site of its kind in the UK, and will be interesting to see its response. Regards Keith Blanchard (keymatic) CLICK HERE TO GO TO keymatic's LINK |

Hi Geoff, I think after 1964 advertising for washing machines and appliances in general went into a huge decline, at least the number of ads. The US started to become a very different place in 1965 and priorities had begun to change. Of course there was that very famous (at least famous in Applianceville) mid 70's GM Frigidaire commercial showing the Jet-Action Frigidaire up against Kenmore's new Dual-Action Agitator. I would love to find a copy of this commercial and digitize it for the site. If anyone has a copy of this commercial please let me know. |
