Description
Black and white 10″ x 14″ ad for their Automatic Washer. There is a picture of Mrs. A. G. Erwin, Jr. of Wilmette, Ill taking items that need to be washed from her daughter Courtney while her husband stands holding six-week old Patricia from a safe distance. The headline claims this unit “saves water! saves suds! Adjusts to all size loads of clothes – Maytag’s new Automatic Water Level Control” and assures us that there will be “No half-clean clothes!”. The text talks about the way it cleans the clothes, the kind of dirt that it cleans, claims that “Mothers love it”, that “Husbands love it too” and tempts us with “A Matching Maytag Dryer!”.
