I have a question for anyone who knows about the monitor line of washers.My friend ron has an old one that looks like my mini hoover from 1948.and he also has a machine by monitor from later on. the one with the stainless steel tub exposed.I saw an ad on ebay from 1948 for a monitor washer with the stainless outer tub. I thought that model wasn't made until the 50s.if anyone has one available please contact me. any info is appreciated. thanks Bill
