This is a Dexter wooden clothes wringer. It has a patent date of May 15 1915. Hard to say exactly how old it probably somewhere between 1915-1920. The wringer does work although there is a lot of cracking in the wringer rolls. Adds character and looks good on my log wall. Bought the washboard to go with this piece although the wringer is about 20 years older.
COOL! Kinda reminds me of our first washing machine we got when I was about 9, I think. It was one of those models with an attached wringer. Marvels of modern technology!
Thank you very much NevadaBlades. It would be cool to have that now.
