Description

A Busy Bee clothes wringer manufactured by Lake Erie MFG in the 1890s. By cranking the handle and passing a garment back and forth through the wooden cylinder, the wringer would remove dirt and grime from the garment. This particular wringer was found in Vaughn Leavitt's home in Bunkerville, Nevada and was donated by Charlie Faught in 2003. It was refurbished in 2012 by Tuffy Ruth.
