The
Riverside #7
Size Double Wheel Coffee Mill
This is a very rare coffee mill that is in
super condition. McMillan barely makes mention of it in his exhaustive book
on the subject of coffee mills, and there is not one pictured. From
the construction details it appears that Enterprise may have made it, but
the wheels, which measure about 17" in diameter, are a completely different casting.
It is marked "Riverside Manufacturing Co. New York Trojan" in bold letters.
It retains 90% or more of the deep red finish, and the paint on the wheels is dirty
but still near perfect. This unusual coffee grinder is far rarer than any
Enterprise or Parker coffee mill in the same size or configuration and it will be
a long time before you will ever see another in anything close to as nice condition.

Enterprise
#1 Coffee Mill
This model is often referred
to as Enterprise's first model coffee mill. It is marked #1 in the casting
below the hopper. These early versions never had a lid for the hopper and
there is no provision for one, and so this is correct as presented.
There is no casting damage, and the guts are present and operational. The
drawer front has been repainted, but the casting and overall condition is nice.
The black portions of the paint appear to have been enhanced in some areas
on this mill at some point, but there is lots of original paint left, and even some
of the gold highlights and stripping on the base.

#3
Enterprise Coffee Mill
This very nice condition coffee mill was made by the
most famous maker of cast iron grinders and other cast iron kitchenware, The Enterprise
Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia PA.. It is in very nice overall condition
and is all original. The paint is good+ and just slightly faded as is often
found. There are lots of decals remaining with good color. The wooden drawer
with the #3 is proper and original right up to the mouse chew on the back wall.
Seems they like coffee as well. We used this mill to grind our coffee for
about a year. It works fine and grinds it as fine as one could want.
I think though we are going to go back to the electric one from the appliance store.
. The wood base is nice and has a great patina. One size bigger than
the #2 these mills stand 14" tall and the wheel diameter is 12

Baby
Enterprise #2 Cast Iron Coffee Mill / Grinder
This
super original condition coffee grinder was made by the premier maker of such things,
the Enterprise Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia PA. It is in very nice overall
with bright colors and the paint being original, as are the decals. The base
and drawer are original and nice. The decals on the body are original but
somewhat worn and faded as can be expected. There is a bit of coffee
residue on the wheels and body as is often found, and we tend to leave them this
way as it is true indication of the age and character of these fabulous devices
from a time past. You can buy #2 grinders pretty regularly, but not this earlier
smaller size referred to as the "baby". These models never had a top, and
it is proper as shown. This is an unusual opportunity to be able to
buy one in this nice condition. Very Nice!!
Good + . . . . . $1295.00 SOLD!
Enterprise
# 2 1/2 Coffee Mill This #2 size coffee mill was made by the most
famous maker of cast iron grinders and other cast iron kitchenware, The
Enterprise Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia PA. It is in very nice
overall condition and the paint is bright and decals are original and
better than most. The #2 1/2 mill was an upgrade over the standard #2
grinder with the nickel hopper being the main difference. They are
10 times harder to find, and the hopper is usually either missing or
damaged.

Enterprise
#2 Coffee Mill This #2 size coffee
mill was made by the most famous maker of cast iron grinders and other cast iron
kitchenware, The Enterprise Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia PA. It is in
very nice overall condition and the paint is bright and decals are original and
better than most. The base is a replacement that I refinished. The paint
is good+ and just slightly faded as is often found. There are lots of decals
remaining with good color. A couple of them do show wear, but overall they
are very nice. The cast iron drawer with the porcelain knob is proper and
original. This mill works fine and grinds, but there is a slight wobble to
one wheel. There are no casting breaks or cracks in it, it is just a little
off balance. Number 2 mills stand just over 12 inches tall and have 9" wheels.
Good + . . . . . $995.00 SOLD!
Enterprise
#2 Coffee Mill This #2 size coffee
mill is the nicest i have ever owned. It would get a 9 1/2 out of 10.
The decals were never touched or cleaned like you almost always see. There are no casting breaks or cracks in it, it is just a little
off balance. Number 2 mills stand just over 12 inches tall and have 9" wheels.

Enterprise #2 Cast Iron Coffee Mill / Grinder This super original condition coffee grinder was made by the premier maker of such things, the Enterprise Manufacturing Co. of Philadelphia PA. It is in super condition overall with the bright colors and all paint being original, as are the decals which are nicer than almost ever seen. It appears to have been overcoated at one point with some sort of gloss, but this probably explains the exceptional condition, and is not a detraction or distraction. The base and drawer are original and nice. There is a small chip in the handle. The decals on the body are original and as nice as one could want noting some small amount of fading. There is a bit of coffee residue on the wheels and body as is often found, and we tend to leave them this way as it is true indication of the age and character of the fabulous devices from a time past. You can buy these grinders pretty regularly, but not in this condition, and it is an unusual opportunity to be able to buy one in the nice condition. Super!!

Chas.
Parker #3000 Coffee Grinder Parker Mills are
much harder to find than either Enterprises or Lander Frary & Clark.
They are a superior product, but I think Parker was more focused on
their line of guns than the manufacture of nice Coffee Mills.
This one is in nice condition, complete, correct w/ a wooden drawer in
this size, and grinds coffee like a charm. Good + . . . . . $1295.00 SOLD!
