 From an estate. Seller says "looks like new" - there's a wringer washer sitting the vicinity so the washer could be nice.

Also has... ....a Maytag Wringer (round tub, sounds like gravity drain) for another $395 he described to be VGC. I thought the price to be rather high, but told him I've got several, wasn't looking for another. Anyone interested could contact him. Ben - thanks. John | ||

Good for you, John! Glad you got these lined up. I need to get down to to see your collection sometime this Spring - and you should come up again, too.
I agree, the price for the wringer is too high when we regularly see them for $50-100 all over the Midwest. Sellers might do a little research on CL before setting prices for these, they are far more common than many would imagine. | ||

 Those are so AWESOME, and they look to be in amazing shape, CONGRATS John!! And suds saver too, wow! Just an FYI, they are 1960 models, not 1959. The round "M" logo on the front panel started in 1960. Kevin (the photo on the left is supposed to be 1958-1959 - oops)

Nice set
John, you're pair is beautiful. Her laundry room sounds like my mom's. Mom had a 1963 Frigidaire custom imperial pair in coppertone, she also had the square tub Maytag wringer which I now have. She would wash a good load of dress clothes in the automatic and drain the wash water into the Maytag and wash the rest of the clothes. Very seldom used the dryer, would hang outside in the spring, summer, and fall and in the basement in the winter. I still have her clothes pins. The clothes that needed ironing she would sprinkle with water and put them in a plastic bag that went into the refrigerator until ironing day. Those were the days and wonderful memories.
