Wullie prices are a lot higher than that here !!   How big is this one ??  Just a common well pulley is bring $40. to $60. !!
Can you read the letters on front ??

Its 13" long and 6" wide, and the letter stamped in black are pretty faded but i can at least make out "Graphite" and it has what looks to be the weight limit engraved in it but i can only see that clearly with a magnifying glass.

Its a pulley block..it may have been part of a block & tackle,....but could also have been on an old sailing ship...your general location..would tell us more,

Oh ok that makes sense, i found it near Port richey,Florida. It was actually an old shrimp dock/resturaunt. You have any idea what year it could be? Thanks!!

I found this inside an old house on my grandpa's property, the house has been there for years, dating back to when the town was found... It looks really old not sure what it is or if its worth anything? Thanks
