One hangs they to himself on his own four walls - and thus originated the idea of a private washboard museum, which can be visited after arrangement.

the strangest models from two
centuries Washing history to 20
countries of this earth.
Whether from America, Mexico, Africa,
East Europe and Western Europe - everywhere became,
or if this becomes partly also even today
Washboard used.
How be different these unique specimens

Beyond it, there is extensive photo material, Drawings, small anecdotes and 400 sound carriers with admissions of washboard tape to see from nine decades and to hear.
