"Do you have a mixer valve gasket for a '52 Easy washer, the early version with the beveled inset? If it is not pliable, don't bother writing back...", that kinda thing. Heck, I have a big box of 50s parts, cheap! Do you want 'em? Send me 5 bucks & postage!

No kidding! But that's really not surprising considering:

Now I'll say there are some damn impressive collections and displays on that site. What I couldn't get was many references in the forums to what appeared to be vacuum cleaner fetishes in their childhood. Then I read a copy of their newsletter and figured it all out.
