The eight one I believe is hand cuffs.
Actually, it is a Dr. Doohooley sneeze limiter from the 1800s.
Also sold as a Smell Barrier about the same time by Dr. Pince Nez
I like the hand wringer. My folks finally went the motorized wringer route. (Could run through more problems.)
You know you are getting old when you recognize all items without much memory digging.
Did anyone have the Rolls in their front drive?
Great shots.

A little depressing, as I remember when we were using some of them, a reminder of my age. The images are good, good job.

Really nice set. What is the eighth one? Don’t recognize it.
It is a meat grinder. You can still get a new one. 😊
I remember most of them...unfortunately lol.

We have it so good. We should count our many blessings. Thanks for the reminder and for sharing.
We play our Victrola now and then, it has been in the family since the '20's. We even have an original Caruso "Santa Lucia" record with grooves on only one side.
