Door

Detail, there is a small screw thru the door at the latch, I think probably does NOT belong, but otherwise its nice.

Gas or electric? Tongue out

 

Don't think I've seen one of these before - except in a rusted heap on the Sacred Appliance Burial Grounds in SD.  Very cool find - love that light gray porcelain drum!

Greg, I cannot believe you even asked that question.  Of course it's electric.  I know I"ve never seen the match to the pulsamatic washer.  this is an extremely rare dryer.  And it is not a condenser dryer, but flowing vented air.

GAS OR ELECTRIC DRYER

Frigidaes first gas dryers were the 1961 line when they all became 27" wide. But Greg you should get this 1956 dryer and I will help you convert it to gas that might be fun.

Ohhh that nice and very rare!  I believe the air-flow design is very similar to the WI-59 dryer I had which Greg has now, which is a fantastic dryer.

Hahaha!  Of course I knew, just kidding, Bob!

 

It would likely be a very nice dryer, as Robert said, Frigidaire made a very soft-drying and quiet machine. 

Peter, you have a 56 washer, this would compliment it nicely!

I'd say make an offer on what you think it's worth to YOU, taking shipping into consideration. All they can say is no, or come back with a counteroffer.
