I have seen Norge wringers with the blue speckled porcelain tubs on the white bases, but there were probably others that looked like that. The second machine looks like it has a Lovell wringer, but there were many brands that used their wringers. |

Ah, great to see a new member from the Netherlands. Welcome!
I don't know much about wringer washers, but there is a database on Lee Maxwell's website: oldewash.com... Click on Photo Album and browse through his archives. Louis |

The one on the right seems to have a stainless steel wringer. Does that say something about the age, or have they always been available?
BTW, Lehmans still sells the in Saudi Arabia made Home Queen, based on the design of the Speed Queen. They used to have several models, even a gas engine powered one IIRC, there is only one model left now, a 120V one. www.lehmans.com/p-3046-ho... |
