Item # SWC06 In 1890, the Pettigrews built their pink brick Victorian farm house and boathouse with widow's walk along an inlet off the cove. The stone fences grew as they cleared their land of the plentiful fieldstone that is typical of the area. Mr. Boots, the family cat, sits by the open gate. Apparently twins Edith and Egbert Jr. forgot to close it again, despite their father's reminders.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Pettigrew has hung out the wash. Using her new modern wash machine with the hand crank ringer, it takes a mere day to complete. It's so efficient she's considering taking in laundry to earn a little pin money, so called because it's 'just enough money to buy some pins.'Please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery. |
