Have you run across one of these?

I noticed a garage sale sign last Sunday...near my house.



I found an old vintage washtub for $30.00, and couldn't hand the money to the older man  fast enough...I love it!

They were used to wash clothes with washboards. It is all metal, and says Thor.  The metal top lifts off, to access the double tubs, and It has spouts to release the water from each tub, when done with the water.

It would be great for ice and drinks in the summer, and I have not found any like it...  

For now it will be a table in my atrium...I love it!

To see other Vintage treasures, go to this link for Knick of Time Tuesday!

  1. I'd have grabbed it, too! I have a friend who has one and it's not painted - still original zinc. She put a glass top on it and it is a table, too.
    Visiting again, but I can't figure out how to follow you back! Can you add that feature to your blog?

  2. Revi, thanks for commenting, and I have made the "Follow Me" easier to see, it is on the right, just down under the "Blogs I go to". It used to be lower down the page. Please let me know if there is any problem with it.

    Also, want to tell you the changes you did this weekend look wonderful!
