Back in the day, they say, laundry was processed at home in a big steel tub like this one, set on the wood stove and heated up to get those whites their whitest. This tub has been in the same Minnesota family for at least three generations and is in good condition considering the work and toil it has had over those many years of use. Handle to handle, it is about 28.5 inches long, 13 inches wide, and about 16 inches to the top of the lid handle. Inside has some hard-water residue that will probably be easy to remove with vinegar and some elbow grease. All-in-all, a nice-looking reminder of by-gone ways we don't really miss.
