"The
World" Water Powered Butter Churn These
churns were patented here in the US and offered mostly to third world
countries in need of a butter churn that did not need to be plugged in.
I think this was at a period before water was considered a resource to
be preserved and not mindlessly poured down the drain. An odd idea that
was not a big hit given the relative scarcity.

Landers
Frary & Clark Universal #15 Glass Churn / Whipper Examples of this small #15 size glass churn in the
Landers, Frary and Clark line are few and far between. It is far less frequently
found than their well-known clamp-on mayonnaise mixer, and it is much rarer than
their hard-to-find #25 and #35 mid-size glass churns. And it is certainly
much rarer than the popular Dazey 1 Qt. churn, or even Dazey's assorted size churns
with their early horseshoe logo. If you are looking for a churn that truly
is rare, the Universal #15 is the one. This example is the only one we have
ever owned in this size. It has been in our own collection for a number of
years, and we know of only one other. And it is in super condition, looking
like it has seen very little use. The jar is excellent with no cracks or chips.
The metal parts are free of corrosion and very clean. The embossed lettering
on the jar and the cast lettering on the lid are bold and clear. It is marked
"Pat. Applied For" as well as with the patent date of Oct. 1, 1915. You'll
be proud to display this top-of-the-line churn!

Cornish,
Curtis & Greene Butter Churn At first
this antique churn's design looks like a crazy idea, but as soon as you start to
spin it, you instantly realize that this fellow had come up with a winner. Because
he hooked up his supports at opposing diagonal corners, this puppy revolves almost
effortlessly because it is so out of balance. I have had square churns that
were just mounted on opposing parallel sides, and they were slow, off balance, and
not at all interesting to see in operation. This one on the other hand is
super both in looks and action, and will be a highlight of the churn collection.
The stencil and writing that remain attest to this fact, and it has info on several
of the side panels about all the awards it won at the state fairs and such.
I imagine that it won even more than these. I had a catalogue from this company
last year, and it was really neat as this company made a full line of dairy and
butter products, first for the farmers in Minnesota and later as they became famous
for their superior products, for the dairy folks all over the country. This
is the smallest #1 size, and I would estimate it at about 5 or 6 gallons.
It is in overall good condition with the paint and stencil being very fragile and
in need of a stabilizing treatment, but I am going to leave that to the next owner's
taste. It is a winner, both in design and looks, and will become a great display
piece in your collection!

#10 Horseshoe Logo Dazey 1 Qt. Butter Churn
This churn is an example of Dazey's earliest model, the Horseshoe
Logo churn. They came in at least 4 different configurations,
and now with the fake ones floating about I suppose we should say 5.
The top portion is undamaged and in pretty nice condition. It
still retains much of its original silver finish and the previous
owner has also applied a light coat of some sort of clear finish to
further protect it. The wooden paddles are very nice.
The rivets in the top and the area around them are very nice indeed,
with no looseness or stress cracks. It looks real good and
displays nicely. The glass jar is very nice with just the
normal flakes at the rim from the way they cut it during the
manufacture process.

The
Davis Swing Churn This unusual antique
butter churn was made in Bellows Falls, Vermont, and is straight out of a time period
that most of us do not remember, and involves a process that most folks will
soon have little understanding of. I have heard that butter is soon to be
outlawed by the ever vigilant fat police. All kidding aside, what was
it like to make butter in a contraption like this? Did the operator get to
sit and read while doing it with this nearly effortless swing style churn which
was one of the "improved and easy to use models"? And who got the job of cleaning
it later? I wonder if questions like that were asked of the salesman way back
then. This example is very nice, with lots of wonderful and original yellow
paint and stenciling remaining. The frame and swing portion are all original,
and in great condition. There is some slight fading and paint loss but that
is typical and to be expected. It is probably about 8-10 gallons and is one
of the smaller sizes of this make that I have ever seen. A great antique piece
in original paint to decorate with in a family room or country kitchen!

Sample Funk's Folding Dasher Churn The condition is superb and is as if it was made yesterday it is so nice.
I have never seen another
.jpg)
salesman sample churn, or many other salesman samples that are as nicely or as delicately
made as this super piece. When I was offered this, at first I thought that's
nice, thinking it was just another full size churn that was in very nice condition,
but then I saw the ruler in the next picture and I got my nose closer to the screen
to be sure I was seeing it right. It only measures about 12" tall by about
5" square. I am sure the price would have started going up. The design
of the dasher which has the feature of folding open on the down stroke of the finely
turned lever / arm, and then folds up on the up stroke to make it easier to lift
with less drag. It hails from Toledo Ohio, but the inventor lived just north
of there in Michigan near Sturgis and it had been passed down through the original
family of the inventor / manufacturer for the last hundred years or so till now.

Patented American Blue Granite Churn
I bought this churn at a tool
show in New Hampshire one early morning a number of years ago, demonstrating that
things show up in the most unlikely of places. We have bought things out of
category at the most unlikely of places, from gun shows to book shows to even quilt
and home improvement shows. This churn is in super condition and still has remains
of the paper label identifying it as American. It also has a patent date in
the cast iron portion at the top. When most people initially see this churn
they assume it is foreign, but that is not true. These granite butter churns
were bringing record breaking sums of money for a while a few years back when I
bought this, which was after the books on Graniteware had come out a number of years
ago.

Keystone
Wall Mount Mixer / Eggbeater w/ Jar This
a a hard to find variant of a wall mount mixer. The cast iron arm is
marked with the patent info, and the phrase "Oil Me" The cast wheel says
something to the effect that only qualified retailers can sell this. The
jar is pretty nice. No chips at the top, and just minor flakes at the base.
The wall bracket is included, and is a cast iron recast. Additional
brackets offered below.

Patented Merry Go Round / Ferris Wheel Milkshake Mixer This
a a hard to find antique mixer. There are a couple different versions out
there, marked and unmarked. It goes round and round and the cups
go round and round at the same time. Most are found w/o the cup and
lids. This one is complete. Very rare and very nice.

Dazey 1 Qt. #10 Butter Churn As with all antiques, condition is paramount when determining the value of Dazey churns. Here is the churn that exemplifies and vividly illustrates that famous saying by E.C. Simmons that long after the price is forgotten, the quality remains. This rare 1 Qt. Dazey churn with the "horseshoe logo" is the nicest example of the earliest model that I have ever had or seen. It is in excellent original condition and there is no damage, flaws, rust or corrosion that would dissuade any collector. Look at all the original silvery finish on the top. The rivets are good, tight, and with no looseness or stress cracks, and hold the top tight to the bright, shiny lid. Observe the crisp condition of the interior of the lid in the picture I have provided. The jar's bottom is boldly marked with the number 10. The jar itself has no damage, cracks, or chips. It's rim has the characteristic roughness associated with these early model jars, which results from the way they were cut off from the mold. The wood paddles are excellent and appear to have never seen cream. These 1 Qt. Dazey churns are offered up on Internet auctions with regularity, but always in lesser condition, even when they claim them to be nice. That is not the case with this example, and I guarantee you will not be disappointed in the condition of this super piece!

The Sanitary Patented 1912 Butter Churn This bow and
cord powered butter churn demonstrates antique alternative technology
at it's most inventive! The inventor of this device must have
dreaded the time consuming drudgery and monotony of turning a Dazey
churn style crank, and the back-breaking up-and-down-for-half-an-hour
method of a conventional dasher churn, so he decided to take advantage
of the power of the lever, and the speed of a bow. The way this
thing works is that you mount the colorful bracket to the wall and then
loop a cord around the shaft of the dasher that hangs from the bracket.
( You provided the crock ) The end of the cord is connected to
a lever, one pull of which produces a number of twirls of the dasher
on the front swing and then the same number of twirls in the opposite
direction on the back swing. Effortless and efficient if you could keep
up. We bought this piece as one of our very first purchases over the Internet, back in the days not that long ago when not everyone was watching and bidding. It wasn't long before it seemed not only us but the whole world had discovered eBay, and I bet if this were to come up for auction again the bidding would be a whole lot more competitive and the result a bit different. The condition of this vintage churn that dates from 1912 is spectacular---it has never been used and sports original blue paint and yellow stenciling with the patent information. We have the original paperwork that came with the churn which indicates the manufacturer was located in Stanton, VA and it also touts the benefits of this great labor-saver! Somehow I just don't think it was a marketing success as I have never seen another. The instructions also say that the main bracket affair makes for a great plant shelf when not in use. Marketing at its best!!

Sylabub Churn There are lots of variations of these early tinware mixers, and this is one that is not pictured in The Eggbeater Chronicles by Don Thornton. It is unusually large in diameter, measuring about 4 3/4" across. The dasher design is an interesting double-decker affair, and the container is flat bottomed. We could not find a patent date on this piece, but it is undoubtedly unique in design. The only apology is that a portion of the lip of the lid has deteriorated, but it is not noticeable when the lid is in place on the container.

The Wonder Tin Syllabub Churn This is a neat little antique tin mixer that was specially designed to make syllabub, a holiday dessert that was popular in the Southern United States in the last century and was made from a mixture of whole milk or cream, eggs, wine or cider, sugar or sweetener, and spiced with nutmeg and cinnamon. The design of this churn consists of an open ended cylinder, perforated around the bottom, and a plunger having a perforated double disk arrangement. The cylinder is stamped "The Wonder Cream Whip & Egg Beater Absolutely Unequaled". Nowadays these churns are found less and less frequently.
