Rural Iowa Outhouse from the 1930s

Description

Before the Joads discovered the luxury of the washroom, what they left behind in their fields in Oklahoma looked more like this. This is what they left behind. Literally. Outhouses were a thing for farmers before the new indoor plumbing systems. Yes, they had to actually leave the comfort of their home to go use "the John".
