Preserving The Past

We went to see a friend at his place of employment tonight. He works at Trail Appliances and on the way out he showed us this old Maytag washing machine that they have on display

[Allison Williams]

My mother had one like that!

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

[Chris H]

What a wonderful old machine.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Oh wow- it's been a long time since we had washing machines like that! Good shot.

[Margo Sayer]

Blast from the past!

[gloria jones]

Brings back memories my family's wringer washer :) and drying clothes outside

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Wow, what a great antique to have. Fascinating looking.

[J A Byrdlip]

I don't know if a fire extinguisher needs to be there, but I remember ours being a taller, round tub model. I think we used either the machine or the wash tubs to hold adult beverages at family gatherings. Fill with ice and insert the Iron City.

[Pat Knowles]

Well a piece of history there, how times have changed!

[Henri Russell]

A grant old antique washing machine.

[arthur clark]

they don't make them to last anymore like this one.

[Henk-Jan]

Wonderful memories!

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Great capture

[wendy frost]

Great find and capture.

[Jean]

Wow, what a great find.

[Jane Anderson]

Those were the days! People back then were so grateful them, and now we're truly spoiled.

[Louise & Ken]

We may think we've "advanced" a long way, but I wonder... He's still got this original, and how many washers have the rest of us gone through since those days?!!
