Old Time Washing Machines

 


Who remembers these old time washing machines with the rollers to get the water out? Now that was some labor saving device. I think I vaguely remember one in our basement when I was very young. I will have to ask my mom if we had one or were we already in the machine age in the late 50's. I definitely remember her hanging clothes on a rope. It is one of my earliest memories as I tried to swing on a clothes rope and dropped to the cement ground. I still have the lump on the back of my head!!! My mom did say that I was kept home from school for a month on a concussion watch. It was probably from that event. Anyway, these are for sale if you are interested. I saw them in Brookston, Indiana. I wonder if there is a Labor Day Sale?
