The Ironrite Automatic Ironing Machine: "Making a New Day Out of Tuesday" (1946)

How the Ironrite automatic ironing machine makes the life of the housewife much easier.

Mary Jones has it all: a husband, a kid, a lovely house with frilly window treatments in the kitchen, and, of course, the 250 pound Ironrite that sits in the middle of her living room! These contraptions were made to make ironing easier.. No wait! It was made so that you would WANT to do ironing! The machine, which looks hopelessly dangerous and complicated is operated by pressing on levers with your thighs (!!) and letting the rollers press the clothes in the proccess (watch those fingers!) Why it's so easy, you can do it blindfolded! (yes, that is shown). An amazing contraptual film, nice color, and totally insane. Highly reccomended viewing!
