EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print captures an advertisement for the Empire Wringer Company, based in Auburn, New York. The colour lithograph showcases a charming scene from 19th-century America, depicting a young girl dressed in period costume diligently helping with household chores. With her sleeves rolled up and a determined expression on her face, she stands beside the Empire wringer, ready to assist in the laundry duties. The image evokes a sense of domesticity and simplicity, highlighting the importance of this innovative appliance during that era. The Empire wringer was undoubtedly seen as a valuable tool for families across the United States, making laundry tasks more efficient and manageable. The child's involvement in such responsibilities reflects both societal norms of the time and the company's marketing strategy to emphasize their product's ease of use for all members of the family. This snapshot into history reminds us of how children were often expected to contribute to household chores at an early age. Preserved within this private collection, this advertisement serves as a window into American life during that period. It not only promotes an essential home appliance but also provides insight into cultural values surrounding work ethic and familial cooperation. Through its vivid colours and attention to detail, this print transports viewers back in time while celebrating both American ingenuity and childhood innocence.
