"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
Yes, that's a very complicated apple peeler. It's almost Rube Goldberg level. I expect it was marketed for local bakeries, cider makers, etc, as it's quite durable -- something that an entrepreneur out in the sticks would need.
ReplyDeleteNice restoration job as well! I almost want it in my kitchen.
And, for $14 dollars, the price was right. Or, for $26 dollars more, you could have one that could be powered by an electric motor, or whatever other power source you could arrange at that time.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many apples $14 would buy, back then?
Oodles, I'm sure.
