I thought I share some pictures of some minor changes I made to the basement lineup with the Hortons now being bolted down and installed that I found last fall. I love how vintage and cartoon-ish the Hortons look lol.

Are they in any particular order?  Maybe chronological?  Alphabetical?

THe fronts and those big crank handles reminds me of vintage KA/hobart dishwashers

It looks like the Speed Queen has an outie as opposed to later models which had an innie or is it just an optical illusion?

Awwww thanks everyone for the nice comments!

Lawrence the machines are in no particular order, but this run along the yellow wall has the earliest of the machines I have.

Tom, yes the Speed Queen logo is sticking outwards on the early A10 model.

I don't think I've ever seen so many early automatics in one place. Just spectacular!

Oh I sure do Doug, they are in the other room on the opposite side of the basement which I didn't photograph yesterday since nothing had moved over there.

Very cool Robert!
Quite a few changes since the TLC video.
These are Launderalls... right?
What do you think of them?
Any quirks, cool features?
They definitely have personality.
Thanks again!
Chris

Your collection is definitely part of history

I hope you are able to find a younger generation to inherit your legacy and keep it going. The strong importance of your collection is that mechanical engineering is very important to the survival of our country. Engineering in general is very important.

Thanks for sharing Robert! I was completely blown away the first time I walked down the stairs into your basement and saw your collection 20 years ago. And it keeps getting better and better! Just amazing!!
