Yes butter churn would be correct.

honey1432 see if you get any replies back.

I would be asking for at least $300 to $375 if it was mine....but feel it is worth more.  The problem here is the finding of the patent to provide the "umph" to the dating of the item.  Once I could establish that....would be asking much more!  Where was their store located?  City/State/Country.  How long ago did they have the store (years of operation).

hi there, it was in Bangor, Maine and not sure of the years... think they closed up in 19340's or 1950's....

thank you for everyone's help in this... still haven't found anything on it yet, but it is going to be put in an estate auction..
