As more people have taken an interest in decorating their laundry rooms, clothesline collectibles are beginning to attract attention in antiques shops and on eBay.

The Clothesline touches on everything-from embroidered laundry bags to simple wooden clothespins, from early laborsaving devices to vintage boxes of detergent. See how collectibles are refurbished and returned to their original use, while others are displayed as object d'art.
