Thumbnail Image of Download Escape From Washday - The Successor to the Washing Machine is Here
This was an amazing find, it is a stunning automotive style large format brochure published by Bendix when they introduced the worlds very first automatic washer. Beautiful images of the machine along with a complete explanation of how a new fangled automatic washer works. To say this is the birth of modern clothes washing is an understatement and what this machine did to provide eventual freedom to women is clear.

The modern woman, the woman abreast of the latest developments in convenient living, will quickly picture how much a Bendix Home Laundry can mean to her. Her homemaking is greatly simplified and much drudgery has been taken out of housework by automatic labor -saving home appliances. And now. Bendix completely revolutionizes washday . . . turns this hardest household chore into a pleasant routine.

The glow of pride you have when you show your Bendix Home Laundry to envious friends will never leave you. For the happy owner of a Bendix has gained more than just a better way of washing clothes. She has gained extra hours to live. She has thrown out the drudgery, toil, the physical and mental strain of washday. She has foiled these thieves of health and youth and beauty.

In their place, she has more time for the really important things ... more time to share in the lives of her children, time for friends, time for romance .. . with the mental ease to enjoy them. Here indeed is a new promise of youth . . . here is new protection of charm and beauty ... the just birthright of every woman.
