Summary
[edit]DescriptionLaundry delivery truck- Worthington, Ohio 1939 (4062285156).jpg |
Before automatic washers and dryers came along, some families relied on commercial laundries. The laundries brought back neatly ironed, folded and/or starched within a few days. I took this shot with my Argus C2. We had a washer woman who came by streetcar from East Columbus every Monday. Mother would meet her at North Street-- the end of the street car line. As I recall, Mother paid her $3.00 or $3.50, plus car fare which was 5 cents each way. As I recall, I helped my friend, Dick Lewis, with his Dispatch route that afternoon. I wanted a paper route, but since we lived in the country, it was impractical. I was 73 years old before I had a route. I don't know the make of the truck. Maybe a Walker? I hope someone will know. |
