Vintage Antique Reading Hardware Ornate Cast Iron Apple Peeler Reading, PA 1878

Description

Vintage Antique Reading Hardware Ornate Cast Iron Apple Peeler Reading, PA 1878. Condition is Used. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail. May or may not be missing pieces but what you ARE buying is an amazing display, early mechanical piece.
There seems to have been a break in the casting behind the main wheel shown in earlier pics, just above the vice. That ‘break’ is attached to a floating arm that doesn’t seem to have much utility. The entire piece rotates and shows tension as necessary but there is a cast break on that floating arm. Great piece for display purposes.
Thank you for your interest!
Everything that I sell is guaranteed 100% Original.
My pictures are my descriptions; I always try to ensure any creases, bends, rust, holes,etc. are present. These items have rust, some scratches, minor dents but are all collector items. Most items can be cleaned up beyond the pics provided, as many items are barn fresh or newly picked. I leave the cleaning up to the collectors.
Please view all of my pictures and ask for any clarifying information before purchase to ensure you feel confident in your purchase. Purchase with confidence in that you are purchasing from someone looking to build relationships and grow rather than burning bridges.
Most items are shipped using priority mail shipping which speaks to the shipping costs and handling and know that you will receive your item immediately after purchase. I always handle items and ship within one business day per eBay definitions and will ensure that your package arrives quickly and securely.
If for any reason, I am not able to handle your item per expectations, I will communicate as such with any impacts that may arise or any challenges that exist. Communication is key.
I pack items with extreme care and the best packing material and structuring per the item purchased because that is how I would expect to receive my purchases. See my feedback on shipping.
I will make every attempt to combine shipping multiple items purchased into the same package if possible; helping to save some of the overall cost on shipping which we can discuss. I am willing to work with you on the shipping where possible when purchasing multiple items, within reason. I will not charge more on shipping than I would expect to be charged myself and try to make the best assumption possible per my experiences shipping thousands of items.
