I am interested in finding out the manufacture month/year for my Maytag Model 30 (31?) wringer washer with serial number 604587A. The wringer washer did not have a power plant so I am not sure if it was originally a Model 30 or 31. Can the serial number discern if it originally had an electric motor or a Maytag Multi-Motor?

I beginning the restoration process and would like to know the original color?
The majority of color under newer paint and hidden in places not commonly exposed to sun is a gray color.
I have admired Brad Ross' 1935 Maytag Model 30 and Model 30WP. The color on his 2 Model 30s is a grey-green color. The link I have provided shows a YouTube video of his restored Maytag Model 30 WP. I like that color but was inquiring what the original color was.

Someone else may have more specific information about this than I do. However,
I can say that the 30/31 was produced from September 1933 until July 1937.
The serial numbers followed this format: 600,000 to 699,999 Affixed by A-B-C-E-H-K-M-N-R-S·U-W-X-Z.

Month/Year of earlier manufactured Maytag wringer washers

Kenmore71,
Thank you for that information. Your presentation of the Maytag Collectors Club data is better organized than the original.

As you pointed out, someone has more specific data to narrow down the manufacture date.
I don't know if the original data from Maytag has been lost and the current data on earlier manufacture dates is based upon data collected from extant machines.
I was hoping for at least the month and year.

The data that I have comes from I'm a scan of a page from the Maytag collectors club book that we published a number of years ago. I have seen that book in an electronic format and to not own a copy myself. I know that there are members here who do.
