As promised, here it is. Here is some Canadiana-re-baged-GE machines for you all. This is thee LAST catalouge Eaton's would make before completely dissapearing off of the Canadian market place in the late 90s. The machines in here are mostly GE rebadges, but try and spot the very very few that are something else. Enjoy!

Now, be advised, this ain't your mamas Viking brand of high end kitchen appliances! Does anyone on the forum have any Viking machines in their collection? If so, post em!

In this first part of the tour, you will find ranges!

Check out that packed 24 inch machine at the bottom right. I've seen the GE version of this at the buy and sell I frequent, it was called a Citation.

More ranges, and I love the red!

Ahh here we go, dishwashers! I believe these are GE Potscrubbers.

Might as well scan it all, fridge time!

My favourite page in the entire magazine. So much colour, and look at all those frozen McCain Pizzas and Highliner fish sticks! Enough of them to sink the Titanic.

Chest freezers/deep freezes. I've seen a large number of Viking freezers floating around.

Here is what you've all been waiting for, washing machines! Now, this is a "mystery page" as there is multiple manufacturers on here. I believe the compact laundry pair is WCI correct? Who makes the ringer? And the twin-tub has a SQ agi in it. Hmm...

Here we are with the washers. Interesting take on the GE FF set up. Knobs all around instead of push buttons, and a very clean control panel.

Last page.

Here is the TOL laundry pair with an explanation of the mini-basket! Hope you all enjoyed the scans! Next time I scan something in, it will be a REAL treat for Maytag fans (its about 34 pages).

As I said above, does anyone on the forum have any Viking machines in their collection? If so, post some pictures!

Kevin - Thank you for great scans. I have saw these washers / dryers from other scans and they are cool. I do personally perfer the GE control panels and the back open lids. The dishwashers are westinghouse. They didnt have to many models. The refrigators may be GE not sure. The ranges I think could be Monarch - does anyone know? I love looking at this great stuff!

The first 30" self-cleaning ranges look to be Westinghouse designs, The automatic compact laundry pair is White Westinghouse and of coerce the full size washers & dryers are GE-HP style. I can't really tell who built the refrigerators,[ it is differently not GE ]and I don't think I want to know LOL.

Sorry, John, it was Westinghouse....  They made the ranges, refrigerators and dishwashers for The Bay stores (prior to 1980) too.

Love these vintage scans! Thanks so much for posting them.

Bad idea from the past: The continuous-cleaning oven. Couldn't scour them with steel wool, and if I recall correctly, you couldn't use oven cleaner on them, either. Never had one---we went directly from manual clean (1967 Kenmore 36" range in coppertone) to self-cleaning (1985 Whirlpool in blah almond---but everyone I knew who had said, "Never again!".

Continuous-cleaning oven!

peteski50's profile picture
I once had a continuous-cleaning oven and it wasnt bad if you knew how to take of it. I perfer self cleaning but its better than nothing. I do know most people didnt care for them. The whole idea was Not to scrub them and let the soils disolve with continued oven use. We had our Crown gas range for 3 years and my mother is very fussy and she had no problem with the continuous-cleaning. I think it would be better if manfactures continued with the removable oven panels to wash in the sink as a better solution!

Kevin, how far back do your catalouges go? I have quite a stash, I think back to 1962.
