Spotted this little molder while kicking a can in Calumet Michigan (The UP) in the beautiful Keweenau peninsula. Behind a large welding shop which was an original structure of the Calumet copper mine; which saw its biggest successes between 1880 - 1935-ish. A LARGE LETTER "E" IN THE CASTING.... Seems complete. According to Dan, a fellow owwm member, this is the more rare model "E". i am submitting for you all to ponder. Many cutter heads, knives still present. Nice large oil cups. Might be the only one represented on this site.
