Hand Crank Washing Ringer

Collectibles : Kitchenware

 

This is a really wonderfully preserved old crank washing ringer. It is 17 inches tall and 13 inches wide and is very solid. It is labeled No 110. It states "Can be attached to a galvanized, wooden, or fibre tub." It warns to oil the bearings frequently. I have been trying to read the name of the company and all I have been able to make out is: Improved Lee ............Co. No date that I have found. The handle is very substantial, although the wooden handle is worn somewhat. Concerning the time this ringer spent in water helping doing the laundry it is in remarkable condition.
