Stop appliance genocide

[Countryford]

In the late 80's and early 90's I would ask people older than I "what the hell were people thinking buying avacado or harvest appliances?" The response was that up until that point you could only get white, so any new color was welcome.

That is odd that he would say white is all you could get, up to that point. Appliance companies started making colors in the early 50's. If you read my reply in this thread(reply #201) it lists the years and colors that the different companies sold. At various times, you could get pink, yellow(a pastel yellow), turquoise, brown, grey, blue. Harvest Gold and Avacado came out in the late 60's and even those weren't the only two colors available at the time. You could get a Poppy Red or Coppertone Brown as well.
