Primitive Cast Iron Washboard / Rub Board    Talk about character!  This washboard / scrub board looks like it has been through the wringer (pardon the pun)!  It dates from the late 1800’s and is made with an unusual cast iron ridged board set into its wooden frame.  The circular hole you see is typical of all cast iron washboards I have ever seen, made that way to allow the water and suds to drain through to the other side.  Unfortunately this example has also suffered a crack in the board.  No doubt about its authenticity and it is priced to account for the “character”.
