Taken from "the selvedge yard" site a kitchen in a prefab weekend getaway house by Jens Risom a midcentury designer. I don't recognize the dial on the left middle panel as any machine I've seen.

I'd bet the farm it's a GE, as is the drop-in range.

Maybe the image is reversed??

It looks like a Frigidaire DW to me, reversed.  (but what do I know)

 

Clue #1: The pull out sprayer hose on the left side of the faucet.

 

Clue #2:  The "light switch" on the door of the GE oven.   Wasn't that switch normally on the left side of the door?

Is for builder's grade GE in Sunny Yellow.

I'm with you on that one, Kelly. I saw many of these in apartments back in the day.

My parent's house had that drop-in in Avacado when we moved it. The light switch was on the right on ours.

I'm guessing GE on the DW.

That looks much better. Magazines sometimes inadvertently print photos backwards. I think it comes from having the photo negative backwards when printing.

A great compact kitchen!  That Mark 27 is one of my favorite ranges.

Dwell magazine has a feature on pre-fab housing this month and this house is featured. The Life picture is reversed but it is indeed a builder GE.

That GE dishwasher is gone now, replaced with a stainless front Frigidaire, MOL-BOL. Wouldn't want to raise anyone's expectations too high!

Lower Line GE

I remember seeing one of these at a summer house my folks would rent in Ocean City MD.  They also had a GM FD laundry centre with the agitub.  Obviously John LeFever did not do the appliances or it most likely would have been a WP stackable and a Hobart KD-18 series DW from the time that house was built.
