Hi

I went to fly to Clean Show at LV Convention Center. It some Dry Clean and Laundry in the future (for all new machines).

I look at Clean Museum about old washer machines.
I look some old pictures of old laundromat store for Bendix, IPSO, Huebsch, etc.

I look the old extractor machine, sewing (without machine), old washer (wheels w/belts), etc.

This Clean Show is over now. Sorry!! It will be next at New Orleans by 2009!!

Peter, I'm glad that you made it to the show. There is some interesting history in the industry. My parents used to tell me things about when they lived in California. They had friends who owned a commercial laundry and they always mentioned the big wooden wash wheels; a term that was used for the large tumbler machines that did the washing and rinsing. Maybe someday I will find a picture of these old machines.
Best wishes,
Tom
