I have to give my husband credit for picking this up
at the estate sale we attended a few weeks ago.
It may be the biggest money maker that we purchased.
And so interesting....
This apple parer was made by a company in Reading, PA
which started producing them in 1878.
As you can see, it is still in working order!
It can peel up to 10 apples a minute!
I guess that if you were making apple cider
that would have been important.
There is a company that still makes them,
that is how well they work.
But this one is a very early version.
Paid $3, sold for $45.
very, very cool!
