i never posted these pics of my last visit to middleport new york to see walt (18millst). he's got some beautiful stoves as well as other fun appliances so here they are, for anyone interested. i went back to get the other rollermatics but ended up bringing back 2 dryers and a wringer kenmore as well! i'll do the stoves first. this one is very beautiful! love the pink! |

i would have driven back for that wringer once i discovered how much fun washing with a wringer washer is! i don't think any of those stoves are walt's daily drivers. we were in his shop that day, although they do work! i love thse lighted controls! so classy! my aunt that raised me would have killed for that stove! when she married my uncle she told hiom to forget the wedding ring and buy her a stove instead, he did! |

Rollermatic... Now I see what you mean by "you have no room". Maybe I should come get the Whirlpool FL a little sooner. Those stoves are very nice. Are those 30" models? A deep fryer module? never seen that before. |

i'm out of room. my house is full of washers and dishwashers, not counting the porch. your whirlpool front loader is ready to go, gave a maytag top loader i bought 6 years ago to a friend at work. have another friend who will take my 6 year old dryer that i never liked. now that i have a good collection of vintage it's time to get rid of the new. "out with the new, in with the old" i say! not sure if those were 30 inch stoves, i think they were wider. if walt checks in here he can answer that. 70 series, glad you love those washers, walt might have something to let go, not sure, his name is 18millst on the site if you want his e mail. |

The eastern suburbs of Buffalo are wealthy, Amherst (lowest murder rate in the US) and Clarence, then the towns start: Akron, followed by the great canal ports: Gasport, Middleport, and Lockport. When I visited Walt, I knew at once that his was an Aworg dream if not an orgy, especially for the Sandbox forum where we hear about stoves stereos, records, motors, lamps, small appliances, doodads, figurines, you name it--Walt's got it, especially in his well-kept, best-stuff antique room. Rollermatic's great pix do it justice. Thanks for so many exotic pics. But--God!!--the machines he's got, and the parts. I searched high and low all over the US for a control board for the Visimatic--and there it was at 18 Mill St., basically in my own back yard. Thank You, Walt. Keep getting more cool stuff and you'll never go wrong doing business at Aworg. |

Thanks Rollermatic: As much as I would love to snatch up the 500, it will be some time before I am in a position to collect. For now I am just glad to see these gems when they appear in this forum. Have a good one, James |

..With the magic eye tube and presence control brings back memories. I had this console in a very MCM danish style cabinet with functional louvers over the speakers. What sound, what quality! I liked the fact you could kick the TT to automatic and disengage the power button over at the main controls. After the last LP had played it would shut down everything. The volume control was a concentric shaft pot and you could adjust the "balance" by turning the inner knob which was lighted from below to reveal plus/minus numbers IIRC. Really a knockout! |
