1930's GE 2G twin tub/spin drier
What a stunning example of a pre-War GE. Can't say I know what GE called this color, but the chances of them calling it cadet blue in the 30's would be slim. If Lee Maxwell doesn't have this model he certainly should.
GE made these up until the War, from 1931 through 1942, with the last variety from '39 thru '42 looking almost identical to an Easy. Ben | ||

Thank you, Launderess Hotpoint marketed this style of machine, too. I have seen ads with the product lineup in the trade magazines from the 30s -40s. This style appeared with light green exteriors, also, but those might have been Hotpoints. | ||

Sold!
Saw listing weeks ago but never remembered to list here in the group. Am glad in last hours of bidding at least two persons made a go. Now that unique bit of history is saved from scrapping or similar worse fate.
Am betting old girl when plugged in likely will power right up. Though sill take some loving care to get her back into good condition. Besides Easy (Syracuse Washer Corp) and GE there were a few others pushing washer/spin driers (semi-automatics) by 1920's into 1930's. Consumers Union and other ladies magazines along with other consumer guides gave warm praise, in particular because these washers lacked the dreaded mangle. But there were other issues. Some units tended to move about during spinning (Easy once sold little rubber cups one could place under legs to help stabilize). Now here's the payoff; General Electric apparently sourced their twin tub washer/spin driers from... you guessed it; Easy Washing Machine Corporation.
