In the store, they have an older gas pump.
That tractor is worthy of a couple of photos.
The building itself is notable. Since this store is in Amish country, do they sell that
line-shaft equipment for their factories? If so, I'd like to tour the factories.
Note the miniature water pumps near the top of this photo. My wife's grandmother had one mounted next to her kitchen sink. Or are these models? I think her kitchen pump was bigger than these.
I assume these sewing machines are models.
I wonder if there were so many wrenches back then because socket sets had yet to be developed.
I like the juxtaposition of plastic pipe and hand water pumps for wells. The water pump in the lower-left corner is the type that would be mounted by the kitchen sink.
Does someone make custom kitchen appliances that look old?
This display is to the right of the above display.
I've never before seen a
wringer washing machine that is this old. It looks like the agitator is driven from the top instead. I wonder if it was hand cranked.
It looks like they may sell wooden tubs. The stuff hanging on the racks at the right are christmas cookies. The things on the high selves in the background are hand-cranked meat grinders. I sremember turning one to help make hash.
I didn't know they made attachments for wringer washers. The butter churn is driven by the agitator shaft. I don't know what attachment is driven by the wringer shaft. Also, there is an older wringer in the upper-left corner.
This store is in Amish country, so you can buy butter churns.
A hand-cranked phone and a Remington typewriter. When I needed a photo of a typewriter a few years ago, I had a hard time finding one to take the photo.
A telephone booth.
The store has many wood carvings. Linda's video gives us a tour of some of them.

"The store is a quarter mile long." "Part of the structure is an 1849 hand-hewn barn." |
Linda opens the door on the phone booth so that we can see a pay phone.
