Mikee Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Check, check,...check...etc.I like the wringer/washer. Brought back memories of our neighbor, Anna Johnson, who did her laundry in one of those and hung it outside on a clothesline. She was near 90, this was around 1960. She babysat us kids from time to time, taught us to play pinochle and 31, fed us swedish pancakes. She cooked on a wood stove. I used to split wood for her and stack it in her woodshed. I got ginger ale and swedish cookies and perhaps a quarter for that. What a dear lady. Thanks Adam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moralist Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Wow, Mike... your neighbor brought to mind a startlingly similar experience. In the '50's we also had a neighbor, Mrs. Sherman. She was a genuine pioneer woman who came to California in a covered wagon,. She drove a 1950 Desoto and tended her garden right up to three days before she died a natural death at 90 years old. She was a kind and gracious lady, and I will never forget her good example.Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merjet Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 That wringer-washer (image091) was the kind my grandmother (and mom) used on a porch of the farmhouse I lived in until I was about 9 years old. They burned coal in the stove used for cooking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrell Hougen Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 That flash camera (024) looks a little like my dad's old camera with the flash bulb. I also seem to remember my mom using one of those hair dryers (094). Brings back memories. Darrell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
