M073C Country Store String Holder & Paper Cutter
Two great all original old country store cast iron items that were used daily in the old country store. This is a string holder which is bolted onto a wooden board next to a cast iron paper holder with cutter and notice that on this piece there is some fancy scrolling and the word, 'Queen'. Notice the cut out shapes on the sides of this paper holder and the impressed designs in the iron. On the top of this holder there is an embossed number, '7'. The paper cutter measures just 7 1/2" wide where the paper is cut. The height of the overall cutter is 12 1/4" high and 11" wide. The hook shaped string holder measures 11" high and the iron base is 6" by 3 1/2". Both of these pieces have been screwed down to an old board just as they would have been done on a counter in a country store setting. We have been informed that these two items were originally used in a store in Wein, Missouri. What a great find to be able to offer to you both of this fine cast iron pieces of country store collectibles. - SOLD
