Egg Scales
On top is the Reliable
Egg Scale and it has a brass tag identifying it. It hails from LA.
In front is the ???? and it still has about 90% of its paper label. Egg
scales are a favorite collecting category for Kitchen collectors and after buying
one or more of the reproduction Jiffy-Ways being offered currently in every
imaginable setting the hunt for genuine ones takes over and a real collection
is begun and the hunt begins. There are hundreds of variations that can be found
from overly designed and needlessly complicated, to the more simplistic like
these. I just wonder who was weighing their eggs and why.

The
Perfect Patented Egg Cutting Guide
What a stupid idea this
thing was! A guide for making the perfectly level knife cut in the perfect
place in the shell of your soft boiled egg. Another wacky idea that was
granted a patent---this one on May 19, 1896. A copy of the very detailed
directions on how to use it to "sever the shell neatly and remove the top of
the egg without any muss" are included, which by the way refer to it as the
"Yankee Egg Holder". It figures. Who else would care. Personally
I avoid the problem by eating mine hard boiled.
