Collector piece! Apple parer/peeler patented 1856 by Lockey & Howland who purchased the design from Horatio Keyes of Leominster, MA. This one is the very earliest design to bear their name – the small wheel model with the 4″ 1/4 diameter turning wheel. That dates it to before 1858. They made parers for roughly a decade before selling the business when it was moved and renamed – so there aren’t a ton of these out there.
Marked (line by line): “Patented” ”June 17 & Dec. 16 1865″ ”Turn Table Apple Parer” ”Manfd by Lockey & Howland”
