Antique - Apple Peeler - 1853 Sargent & Foster

Wonderful gadget! We are offering this Antique Apple Peeler which measures 4 1/2" wide, 10" long and 5 3/4" tall. This piece was manufactured by Sargent & Foster circa 1853+. Good condition, some of the original label is still readable. Sargent & Foster's of Shelburne Falls Massachusetts made one of the first quick returns. An interesting worm gear drives the mechanism which, moves the blade. The paring arm is under spring tension to follow the apples profile. Once the apple is pared the paring arm is no longer in gear and snaps back to its starting position.
