So? That control panel looks like the $99 special that George's and Luskin's in the DC area used to sell, althought with three cycles, it might have gone for a little more. The stench of WCI is all over it. | ||

Honey, I Blew Up the Picture!
And you're right - it is those idiotic Ye Olde Englishhe flourishes on the "H" and "Y." That nonsense got very popular around 1968 and hung around for years. Glad it's gone.
However, I still find the photo scary - when you consider WCI's concept of quality, you have to wonder what on Earth could they have meant by "Heavy Duty" - a slightly better grade of spit and chewing gum? | ||

There was an ad for Kelvinator & Tide, that featured a very TOL harvest gold Kelvinator washer... (My sister unfortunately cut up part of th washer in the ad, getting a brownie recipe of the back page behind it...!)
Of which a friend of mine had an avocado TOL one just like it, set off to the side of the basement, obviously not used; his mom had a newer (though not as high-endy) Whirlpool set... -- Dave | ||

Ah, the good old days.
I actually really miss that machine--if I knew what a hen's tooth it was, I would have hung onto it!
