Nice, well appointed range. I was giving some thought to inquiring about it but I really don't need another. That's got to be the last year or very close to it for Woodtone brown. I believe 1963 was the first year for Coppertone which replaced Woodtone.

The ad says it's a J485Y model, and to the best of my knowledge, this indicates a 1964 model. Shaded Coppertone was introduced on the '62 models, and I'm thinking Lawrence (Pulltostart) has documentation that Woodtone Brown was offered concurrent with the Shaded Coppertone until the '65 models. |

My 1962 catalog includes a page on Textolite patterns and colors and how they relate to appliance colors. They illustrate the 4 General Electric kitchen colors as:
Woodtone Brown and Copperfinish Petal Pink Canary Yellow Turquoise Green Elsewhere in the catalog there are references to "Dark Coppertone".
My 1963 catalog has the same page, but no reference to "Copperfinish" but elsewhere in the catalog there are references to "Dark Coppertone".
My 1965 catalog has the same page, but the appliance colors are:
Woodtone Brown Petal Pink Canary Yellow Turquoise Green Elsewhere in the catalog there are references to "Dark Coppertone".
My 1966 catalog has the same page, but the appliance colors are:
Woodtone Brown Dark Coppertone Canary Yellow Turquoise Green

This really is a beautiful range, I hope one of you in the area will save it... woodtone is a really unique color, and this is a great range to use! |
