Up for auction is my Grandfather's A.I. Root Company two (2) comb honey extractor. It is a Cowan's Rapid Extractor No. 17 manufactured in Medina, Ohio USA and dates to approx. 1915 - 1920. This extractor came out with his bee's and bee keeping equipment on two flat cars in the early 1920's from Racine, Wisc. to Southern Calif. It was used in his Honey Business which was sold to Miller Honey after his death in the 1950's by my Grandmother. The unit is all original and still works. Needs a good steam cleaning as it has been in a storage locker for years. It is galvanized metal with 2 handles to carry and measures 24" wide by 31-1/2" tall to to top of tub or 32" tall to top of gear housing. It probably belongs in a museum as part of Americana heritage. Please email with questions. It is available for inspection and must be picked up in Irvine, Calif. or can be shipped if buyer arranges it with carrier to pick up.  For additional Kittinger Honey info please see eBay listing "Antique Kittinger Award Winning Orange Honey Label - 1920's"
