I thought this may be a 70 series model, but it may not be. This is the exact same washer that was on the other side of me (the LK combo on the other side) when we moved into our house in 1961. It had a preggo rotoswirl with scrubber cap & detergent cup. I don't remember if it had a bleach dispenser though. The family were from Holland, husband was an executive with KLM. I understand this washer last well into the 1970s for them. Another major piece of my childhood puzzle solved.

Well Bob, at the top of the page it says "700 Series" so you are right about that and I'm thinking that is a '61. I remember seeing plenty of 'em!

I have that instruction manual and the matching parts list and the first 2 numbers after the 110. are 59 so that means it is a 1959 model. PATRICK COFFEY

Patrick, thank you!! I knew 1961 and 1962 were wayyy to new for this machine. The temp & water level knobs were just too reminiscent of the LK Combo that was on the other side and they're so similar to Ross' Kenmore as well as Mark's LK. Bob
