Having served his time from 1879 to 1886 in his father's works Messrs. Thomas and Taylor laundry engineers of London and Stockport he was then engaged by them as traveller; and in 1890 was appointed manager of their London works. He designed and superintended the erection of public laundries baths and wash-houses and dairies all over the United Kingdom in several of which he installed electric lighting. His death took place on 3rd January 1902 in his thirty-sixth year." Grace's Guide. "While the upper classes went on employing washerwomen and/or general servants there were various cheaper "send-out" laundry services in the later 19th century and early 20th including laundries that brought both domestic laundry and linen from hotels etc. to a "hand-finished" standard. The simplest were wet wash US and bag wash UK arrangements where you sent off a bundle of dirty laundry to be washed elsewhere. Ironing was done at home at this bottom end of the market. In some places a mangle woman with a box mangle would charge pennies for pressing household linen and everyday clothing." oldandinteresting. London: Heywood & Company Ltd, nd.(c.1900). hardcover

1949218691949. Chinese-American Labor Chinese Laundry Association Inc. Membership Certificate. San Francisco California: Chinese Laundry Association Inc. Signed by both the Secretary and the President of the Chinese Laundry Association. Has an official circular blind-stamp stating "Incorporated May 17 1949." Measures 8.5" x 11". An exceedingly rare surviving membership certificate issued by the Chinese Laundry Association Inc. This official document is labeled No. 096 and certifies that Yee Kay was an active member of the association and entitled to the privileges and protections of its charter. Founded in response to the intense discrimination labor exclusion and municipal regulation that Chinese laundrymen faced particularly under San Francisco's racially targeted health ordinances and business license regimes the Chinese Laundry Association functioned as a protective labor organization. By the early 20th century Chinese laundries had become synonymous with Chinese American labor identity comprising the largest source of employment for Chinese men barred from other industries by racial prejudice restrictive laws and union exclusion. A rare artifact of Chinese American labor history and early 20th-century urban resistance to exclusion. Overall very good condition. unknown
