A Seattle area university's archives posted a couple of pictures from 1981 showing a student doing laundry. Here is the link. It's on Facebook, but should be publicly viewable even for those who aren't on Facebook (it works in anonymous browsing mode on two of my browsers). |

Times haven't changed much. People still stand on top of their laundry to pack it all in. The old Cheer had an industrial fragrance to it and was pretty high sudsing. It was a good performer. |

My mother was a strict Cheer user. Before my wife and I could afford our first automatic, I/WE had many trips to the laundromat. I witnessed many horrors of stuffing and packing of unsorted laundry into those machines. I had to practice great restraint to keep my mouth shut. It still brings shivers up my spine. |
