Washing machine. Metal, etc. SKRAT, model P-7, Leonard Ryznar, circa 1945. Metal washing machine with an electric motor which would drive a circular container (that moves the clothes, a “drum”), with a water intake at the bottom to the right and with several valves and levers, as well as four legs with a circular base to better rest on the ground and prevent, as far as possible, the machine from moving when it was in operation. Leonard Ryznar (or Rýznar) was the founder of the Skrat company, which made several models similar to the present one, very popular among those who could afford them in certain areas of Europe in the 20th century. As indicated on the device itself, it is the P-7 model, produced around 1945. Towards the beginning of the 19th century, several “machines” were developed for washing clothes, consisting of a wooden box in which the clothes were placed and a manually operated system that moved them. Another variant were those that had a drum in which the clothes were pressed to wring them out. Electric washing machines were not created until the beginning of the 20th century (in 1904 these appliances were already advertised in the United States; apparently, the first in Europe appeared somewhat later), becoming a mass appliance from the late 1940s to the beginning of the the 1950s, and in Western Europe developed into an everyday appliance from around 1960.

“Irish mail” type manual movement car. First half of the 20th century. Traction vehicle that consists of four wheels, a single seat, a control in front to activate the gear and two levers (one on each side, one acts as a brake and the other is related to movement) and an acetylene headlight in front. The front axle is foot-operated for cornering. It is very similar to vehicles known as “Irish Mail”, which derived from the dresines or skunks that were used on the tracks in the construction and maintenance of railway tracks. According to another theory, these same cars, especially when they were not used on the tracks, were called the “Irish Mail” car. See, for example, children's examples from the AC McClurg and Co. catalogue; another company's 1938 Irish Mail Deluxe Racer; or with the 1920 Ben Hur Racer Irish Mail hand-car.

Adjustable programmer for “Pulsynetic” watches, striking. Gent's of Leicester, England, circa second third of the 20th century. Good general condition The wooden drawer with a glass front protects the machinery of the piece and allows you to see the different “wheels” and spheres of the mechanism. This serves to, in certain electrical impulse clocks, coordinate all the slaves that are linked to the master so that the bell ringing sounds at the same time in all the components of the system. Apparently, and due to the reliability of the system, it has often been used in British schools and similar institutions. The company that created the mechanism was founded in 1872 by John Thomas Gent, GTGent & Co. being one of the first to make electric chimes in England. After several changes, the company changed its name to Gent & Co., and, shortly after, AEJ Ball joined and began producing an electric watch system, later known as “Pul-syn-etic”. Weight: 15kg.
