Description |
A "battling board" and a wash tub sit in the "laundry" area under trees by a creek. Wet clothes were placed on the battling board, or the "butcher block" table on the right, and beat with paddles to loosen dirt. This may be on Jake and Polly West's property (See image ULPA 1982.01.415.p.). Handwritten on bottom border: 413. Handwriting on verso is partially obscured by scrapbook paper that has adhered to the print, but appears to say: "Battling Board." Title supplied by cataloger. |
