Old West & Native American Auction
Lot 1469:
Description
This rugged, utilitarian piece is a good example of early demolition equipment and a great piece to complete your Western mining collection. This robust construction features a wooden frame and a iron spike severing as the central spindle. There is a partial white label on one arm, which appears to read “KIRS”. Green demolition cord is wrapped around the spool. Overall, the wood is weathered, grayed, and bears minor splintering. The iron spike exhibits deep rust and pitting, but the entire assembly remains completely sturdy and functional showing authentic wear expected of a field-used implement. Spool: H 7″, W 10.5″ Spike: L 13.5, Dia 1”
