Summary
A child's wooden mangle. This has a wooden frame and has two horizontal wooden rollers, the bottom one being turned by a wheel to which is attached a small handle. The draining board is horizontal. The object is painted red, green and brown. It looks as if it was home made. The wheel appears mended with two wiggly nails.
