How cool! Never saw this one before. Must be a rapid advance timer? Touch the fabric type, then the touch n wash button? | ||

That is a pretty rare one---can't say I remember seeing one of those before. Kenny, was it "cast-off" in a junk yard somewhere or is it working? | ||

The "Her Majesty" is the Wards topline model that I remember most vividly from my youth, probably from the late 60s/early 70s. | ||

I remember when MW offered those T & W's from my catalog store days; how sleek and fab I thought! About that time my boss attended some big products of the future show in Oakland, Ca. and they were talking about washing machines that wouldn't have to use water, micro waves or something, maybe sound waves, I can't recall. | ||

the TouchNWash was a model I always wanted.My friend,Herby Blackwell had one and I always messed with it when I went to his house (that's not all I messed with!!!)after a few basketball games on a saturday afternoon.It has a rapid advance timer and once you set it for the cycle you want,you push the dial in to start.

Goodness me! You really know how to dig for pictures... These were both beautiful machines, both machine were probably crushed, baled and shipped to China and are now on their way back to us in the form of dog food. The Her Majesty washer was fried when I got it, the three speed motor had broken free and sheared off it's own shaft on the base of the machine, there was evidence of oil inside the basket which was the same condition that the green one suffered from. You never know what to keep until they're gone ;-) I've seen several of this style Wards dryers at sales, I'm sure they're all dog food by now... Look at all the appliances in my garage - the Frigidaire dryer, Hoover washer and dryer, numerous newer machines - every one of them in new homes now. | ||

Funny this thread got bumped up again today! I saw the exact same Wards washer I had a while back at an estate sale with a matching dryer, but a step above the model pictured in my garage above - it had a full-with console light under the panel. The washer's front panel was off, there obviously was some problem...
