I have two of those wringer washers in the basement of the 1952 house I just bought. Anyone want em? They weight about 200 pounds.

The truly shocking thing is the clothes shaver. That looks like a man’s hand operating it, due to the lack of otherwise obligatory red nail polish. Who on earth ever thought a MAN could do something around the house? Crazy!

I still have a portable dishwasher, like the one in the ad, that I inherited from my Mom. It still works like a charm, even though its white and not harvest gold.

I get a kick out of what is in the freeze of the side-by-side refridgerator. An uncovered cake? Bananas?
