When Hamilton wanted to market washers, they had Norge make them. It influenced the styling of the Hamilton dryers to match the Norge-influenced styling of the washers when Norge had the linear timer. |

Very interesting and enticing control panels. Got a kick out of the text, saying to select the perfect drying "Weather." You know this is the 50's when some people were morphing out of outdoor drying, and weather was the determining factor.
Beautiful pix, Guys. Peter, fun and cool to learn you're such devoted dryer fan. |

Wait a minute, didn't Hamilton invent the automatic clothes dryers???? So,why would Norge be making clothes dryers for the company that introduced them?? I know for a fact the Hamilton made the original Frigidaire dryers and that they too made a few under the Hotpoint label.So,why would Norge make dryers for Hamilton??

Dblrinz, I remember that long handled brush too, in fact I might have stashed it somewhere when the dryer was decommissioned. As a little kid I would watch the clothes tumble in the dryer, and I remember loving the look of the "blue" bulb. |
