A big thank you goes out to Ben who recently lent me some great sales literature to add to the Ephemera Library.
#1 Built-In Dishwasher Comparison KitchenAid 18 Suburba is compared to GE, Maytag, Waste King, Sears/D&M and Whirlpool top-of-the-line dishwashers. It's a fascinating read actually. #2 1968 Easy Automatic Washer Brochures #3 1968 Easy Automatic Dryer Brochures From the 1959 to the 1965 line Easy automatic washers used their own Velva-Power transmission, then starting in 1966 it seems that Hubb the company that owned Easy at the time closed the Easy factory and had Hotpoint build their automatic washers for the next few years. It was about that same time that Hotpoint introduced their filter/spirl-agitator which I'm sure was no conincidece. Here is the 1968 line of Easy Washers and Dryers. Interesting to see is the top-of-the-line model has variable speed control!

The KitchenAid document is really cool Phil, I have a feeling KA made that to counter the Why Maytag Means More book which was Maytag's comparison of other brands from only one year earlier. Both manufacturers put an interesting spin on everything to say the least!
