I found this in the dirt when cleaning out a shed on my property, it is a Enterprise no. 36 raisin seeder made in Philadelphia, patents: April 2, Aug 20, 1895 & Oct 5, 1897. Prior to 1900 and as late as 1920 you could only get raisins with the seeds in them ( not to nice to eat). This device took out the seeds. I was able to get it apart and cleaned up (was seized).
Thanks, Addy
