Dream Dishwasher 1962?

TOMORROW: Housewives can relax from start to storage with this dishwasher of the future.

What a wife-saver! At a push of a button, this “dream” machine goes to work on dishes…scrapes, washes, dries, sterilizes and stacks them back on the shelf, ready-to-use.

Dunbar

We will always feel the same about our creature comforts whether we pitch our tent on the green hill or among the suns and moons. In time and taste Dunbar spans it, Edward Wormley designs it.

Lingerie Has Never Been So Unhibited

Oh, ah Golly Gee - only Nylon Tricot makes lingerie so sigh, so soft, so melody. It’s supple, smooth and terribly shred about little care and long, long, wear. Oh, never a fabric with the spriteness, delightness and everlovin’ rightness to make you feel so never before…
‘til Traditional Tricot of Du PONT NYLON!

Frankenmuth, Michigan

A German settlement known throughout the State for its chicken dinners, served harvester style, and its Frankenmuth beer. It was settled in 1845 by a group of Franconians from Bavaria and, later, by refugees from the unsuccessful German revolution of 1848.

The neat village, spread out for some distance, has retained its German flavor; most of the inhabitants are descendants of the original settlers and speak the German language.

from Michigan: A Guide to the Wolverine State, 1941

I highly recommend taking a trip to experience the sights and sounds of Frankenmuth.

Postcard Key:

The look? From Bertone, so internationally-renowned that he generally won’t pick a pencil unless a car costs thousands more. The engineering? Who else but West German craftsmen could perfect this air-cooled, all-aluminum rear engine that yields up to 47 miles to the gallon and covers 85 milers and hour. Priced at $2200 - perhaps foolishly. People who visit our showrooms say we could get much more.
