Clothes washing set

A practical set for a soldier stationed away from the front line, meant to keep clothing clean while in camp. Inspired by items that would have been available in support areas during the Second World War.

The package includes three pairs of wooden clothespins marked “Wäscherei Heeres,” echoing the equipment used in army laundry facilities, a box of washing powder with period-correct German labeling, and a 4-meter clothesline - ideal for drying uniforms or undergarments in field conditions.

Sets like this were most common in rear areas, field hospitals, or temporary rest camps. Maintaining basic hygiene and keeping one’s gear clean wasn’t just about comfort, it was often essential, especially during extended deployments.

Suitable for reenactment camps, background displays, museum exhibits, or as a detailed prop for wartime photo shoots and film scenes.
