This is what ours was like......just reversed.  That would explain why I do dishes 'left handed' .....so I'm told.  :D
Mind you my parents wouldn't have paid near $500 for it back then........as the house on a lot and a half only cost them $8,800.

I have one identical to Tales` sink in my front yard !!  Its the dogs water bowl !! Yesterday Shadow, the Scottish deerhound, (mostly anyway) was laying in it !! And she is about 60 lbs !!

I just spent $30 on a friggin wading pool for the dufus........he's too big to fit into the cheaper ones. Reminder to self: next dog - SMALLER!

When we redid our kitchen a few years ago, we had a heck of a time finding a new cast iron sink with a drain board. Turns out that Kohler still makes them.
Around here most of the old ones are laying out in horse pastures, getting used for feed or salt.
