1920's Henley
Roll About Scooter / Childs Wagon The
original condition of this hard to find toy is incredible. Fully 90% or
more of the paint and finish remains. It is hard to imagine the kid this was
given to did not immediately take it out and trash it.It comes with a few pages of reprinted literature explaining how to set it up, different ways to use it, ie. as a wagon, and different grades or models that they offered. You could get it with or without the ball bearing wheels this one has, and also with rubber tires, or steel rims as this one has. It has some sort of articulated steering joints that allow the entire platform to lean into turns. Quite advanced.
There is also a cut out ad from an antique publication touting a much lesser condition example being offered at the Indy Ad show for 4K or so. Opportunity knocking here. An incredible piece. Different & Nice!

Streeter Sterling Model #95 Slicer / Slicing Machine
This Sterling Model #95 Slicer /
Slicing Machine is an unusual piece of antique restaurant / food prep equipment. The Sterling 95 Slicer rivals
the extremely popular Berkel line of meat slicers in form and function. The Streeter
Sterling Model 95 slicer dates from shortly after the turn of the century
and is more unusual than the typical Berkel Slicer. In a Berkel Slicer the blade revolves, and the table moves back and forth. With a Sterling Slicing machine, the blade not only revolves, it also moves back and forth with an arched sawing motion. It is a sight to see. Everything involved w/ the blade is present and operates smoothly, with the blade rotating and moving back and forth as you turn the crank handle. Here is a video of it in action https://www.patented-antiques.com/images/AA-NEXT/S95-opd/DSCN1990.MP4 The 10" blade is damage free and pretty clean and sharp.
The original paint is approx. 80 - 90 %. There has been some nickel loss to the flywheel and other parts. There is some pitting on the meat tray / table. The sliding table, with various hold downs is unconnected and not hooked up. I do not know if it operates correctly as it seems to be misaligned. It is designed to move toward the blade in finely controlled increments and that adjustment is present and functioning.
There is little info or other examples to be found using Google. A different one can be seen in the past sales archives of my website AntiqBuyer.com. Reference to another can be found on Facebook.
You can also find ads online for the model 95 Sterling slicer offered by the N. R. Streeter Company of Buffalo NY, and an earlier version offered by a firm named Anstice, that Streeter bought out. Streeter is a well known name for some rare and unusual pressing irons and traps, as well as many other cast iron kitchen related tools.
A rare & desirable piece. This Sterling 95 slicing machine would be a perfect candidate for restoration and then used in a upscale deli / sandwich shop.

true piece of Americana.Over the years we have has numerous different variations on the theme of these. Probably over a dozen different designs. This one uses a wedge locking systen to attach to a 6" stovepipe. It is approx. 18" square. It has Pat Apl'd For cast into the top. There is a crack that runs through several of the squares. It is till solid and there is no movement when you stress the corners. It is still suitable for use with light duty or loads. I would not think about putting post of soup or stew on it to keep warm. Use it or display it, a great piece.

So - Ezy Mouse Trap by Wolverton Mfg. Co. of Holton Kansas
The label is a bit faded, but readable. Good thing as that is the only
marking on this rare and unusual mouse trap. It is on trap peoples
want list, but not in any collections I know of. It was made by the
Wolverton Mfg. Co. out of Holton Kansas. To operate you squeeze the
arms at the rear, raise the bait tray arm, and it is set. Not the most
powerful trap ever made, but one of the hardest to find. Very nice.

C. Jillson's Patent Jan 6 1857 Rat Trap by Dresser & Jillson Worcester Mass.
This is a rare patented rat / mouse trap. It
has a 2" ring and is approx. 7" long. This is an earlier model as
I had another one with an 1858 date and different location. You can see that
later one in my sales archives.
The brass trigger on this one is marked with the single 1857 patent date, the
maker name, and location of manufacture, Worchester Massachusetts.I have read that they came in sizes up to 8" but have never seen one that big. There is a larger 5" one in my archives.
To set, you pull back on the spring loaded bar till the brass trigger sets. Then when the unwary critter passed through the hole the idea was that he would scratch his belly on the small point at the bottom, lift up a bit to get away from that, hit the trigger and Whap, the two spears come down!! The spring is good, and the trigger works as it should. This one would do the trick. A rare piece!! Very nice!!

1 Sure Death Trap by Davenport Trap Co.
Unmarked that I see. Bruce Shaw was granted a patent for the idea in
1912. The Davenport Trap Co. was formed in 1909 and began
production of this trap as their first offering. In 1912 they introduced the #2 & #3 models
that were slightly different and
this style with the 6 finger trigger was dropped. It is a hard to
find trap. Rusty, but overall pretty nice condition. Strong spring and
seems to be fully functional. Will clean to be nicer, but we will leave

"Sub
Grade Rod #218" by L. A. Batham Oakland Cal. I have never seen or heard of this
"Sub Grade Rod" before, and neither has Google. This unusual measurement device
is NOS in its case. Google does recognize the maker, and he was Oakland's
official draftsman back in the 1920s. He also lived in Chico and
applied for the chief engineer job there about the same time. That is
all the info I could find. No mention of a patent or reference to this
type of device would come up. I am guessing that Mr. L. A. Batham was sent out to a lot of job sites to measure footings and got tired of bending down to read the tape to see if they were the proper depth. Below the name stamp is a window with a ruler that one would read the depth of the footing or trench - below grade while holding it in the trench and reading the scale while standing erect The total travel range of the two sliding sticks is less than 2 feet. That is about what code here calls for with footings and stem walls. That is my guess anyway.

Dowsing
Rod w/ Power Tube for Treasure Hunting
Every serious gold seeker or treasure hunter needed one of these back in the
day. It is not just a dowsing rod for water as is normally thought of, this version is a
near magical POWER model if you believe the hype.It is similar in concept to a Gold or Treasure seekers Spanish dip Compass that also have a power tube filled with magic nuggets to help in the search for treasures. There is one of those Spanish dip Compasses pictured and described in my past sales archives on www.AntiqBuyer.com.
This version looks more like a water dowser in design with its twin handles. The power tube is filled with a special gold looking material that enhances its abilities. The original handles are included but have suffered over the years and are now very fragile and have a tape repair. A past owner / user made a replacement pair of handles that look good and work just as well.
I heard one could take a course in using this sort of thing at Trump University but they are now closed, or at PT Barnum's continuing education site if you can find it. Just send me the money and I will enroll you. On a more serious note though there are current day versions of these dowsing rods offered today for the incredible price of over 2K and there is an upgraded 3K model that has the added feature of a small wire antenna to further enhance the power tubes ability. Oh Lordy!! Here is the address to view that https://www.simmonsscientificproducts.com/pmr_ii.html Other versions are offered on eBay for somewhat less for the bargain treasure hunters out there. P. T. Barnum and Don the Con would be proud.
