Jackson ... shoot, for $10,000, you could have bought sets of all of these! Now, wouldn't that have been cool? :-) |

No Robert, you'd buy a 1950 Apex Wash-A-Matic and 24,000 boxes of Tide :) |

Neat picture, Wouldn't it be fun to know who had won these prizes and what kind of machine they picked? Terry |

Blackstone or Kelvy? OMG! I wouldn't know which one to pick. If I was a typical housewife from the 50s, I'd probably get the Kelvy. But if I would know then what I know now, I'd get the Blackstone. |

I`ll take the Kelvinator, as I`m not familiar with the One Minute and Laundry Queen models. :( |

Blackstone for sure... With the money, I'd buy all the kitchen appliances. It's curious that Frigidaire isn't offered as a choice. It was probably the tangling. One Minute, Laundry Queen, Coronado, Wizard, Firestone and Caloric were all Beam Mfg. machines - essentially the same inside. Even the Easy and Speed Queen could be added to the list of Beam machines, but for a few differences in clutches, etc., they were all similar. |

I'd definitely go with the super-cala-splash-ariffic KELVINATOR. I choose that over the ABC simply because I like the name Kelvin. seeitrun---You're going to have an 11 year wait for that Westy, man. The contest was held in 1955, LOL! Nice choice of machine, though. Those vintage Westys are tres cool. |
