The timeframe apparently is 1960s. Can anyone pinpoint it to a specific year? Brother of dad's uncle's wife worked at the Western Auto in their town. I believe her first husband originally owned the store (or maybe it was her father). Aunt Ruth had a lower-end Wizard washer of the same aesthetics (console, timer, water saver button, identical agitator filter). The non-porcelain top was rusting badly. I never saw the machine run. |

1963 or 1964 would be my guess. I actually went to the appliance junkyard in Glendale the other day, there was a Wizard dryer from around this time. Will try to make arrangements to get some machines from there since one of the people who works at Appliance Express says most of the stuff towards the very back is going to be gone by January or possibly next year sometime.
