Westinghouse wringer washers were very popular in Canada in the 50's and 60's. When I was a kid we had family in Canada and often vacationed there. It seemed everyone had Westinghouse wringer washers. Wringers retained their popularity in Canada for a long time. The Canadians were not as quick to jump on the automatic bandwagon as their neighbors to the south, especially in the more rural areas. I don't think Westinghouse wringers were sold in the US after the Laundromat was introduced in 1945. Westinghouse also had a spinner-washer in the 30's, similar to an Easy Spindrier.

If it wasn't so far away I'd get it...the square-tub with a full skirt is my favorite wringer design! |

What a beauty! I wonder what kind of agitator it has? A spiral one like the Classic westy top loaders? Or is it a Easy spiralator type? |
