[Albion Wilde]

I’d also hate to lean over to clean the large tubs. And how do you clean behind and under the freestanding ones?

Radiator brush.

Clothes dryer lint brush.

Long-handle flat cleaning mop.

From my book on Henry Livingston:

Cleaning was the passion and the pleasure of a Dutch wife. When Mevrouw De Lange died, the inventory of her home and shop included: one rake brush, two hearth brooms, one cloth brush, two Bermudian brooms with sticks, one hay broom without a stick, five whiting brushes, a “brush to clean ye floor,” five rubbers, two small painted brushes, two hair brushes, two dust brushes, a chamber broom, two dust brushes called hoggs, and some miscellaneous brushes. One is left to infer that Mevrouw probably died of overwork.
