Arcade 
Crystal Wall-Mount Coffee GrinderArcade Crystal Wall-Mount Coffee Grinder  Although this model is relatively common, this example is in  uncommonly nice condition.  It is as close to mint as we have ever seen and looks to have never been used.  It is all original and complete with the properly marked "Freeport, Ill." catch-cup, an item which is usually missing.  They don't come much nicer than this!

Vintage Coffee MillsTin Litho Wall Mount Vintage Coffee Mills  We have had & sold dozens of different style wall mount coffee mills ranging from all metal varieties to the more common glass jar variety.  These tin litho ones that are our favorite of the wall mounts.  Over the years we passed on many nice ones when our interests were aimed at other types of things.  I wish I had paid more attention as they have become very hard to find.

Hamilton Beach Electric Wall Mount Coffee Mill     This c.1915 coffee mill is a very hard to find example that is in pretty good condition.  It has the proper and operational cast iron speed control foot operated switch The cup may be a replacement, but as i have never seen another I can not really say.  The advertisement that I have seen for this grinder shows it without a lid, and I think we can safely assume that the one that is on it now was the last owners solution to the spiders and other critters of the night taking up residence after the lights were turned out.   Rare!!

The 
Telephone Coffee Mill by ArcadeThe Telephone Coffee Mill by Arcade   This is an interesting coffee mill made by the famous maker of cast iron grinders and other cast iron kitchenware, The Arcade Manufacturing Co. of Freeport Ill..  It is in very nice overall condition and includes the original catch cup.  The tin screw lid is missing.  The wood is nice and has a great patina.  These were made to be mounted to the wall as the handle extends past the base as it revolves.  It is operational and ready for show or use.  A hard to find grinder.

The 
Star Mill Coffee GrinderThe Star Mill Coffee Grinder   This unusual Coffee Mill / Grinder, "The Star Mill",  is from Philadelphia and if far rarer than a comparable Enterprise coffee grinder.  It is the size of a #7 mill and is the type that would sit on the end of the counter in a large General Store back near the turn of the century  The condition of the paint on this grinder is wonderful, and the stars on the wheels are a great touch.  The wheels measure 22" and the internal mechanism is intact and operational.  The brass top hopper has some nickel loss and the lid needs to be soldered back on, but overall it still looks pretty good.  Mills this size that have not been restored and are this nice with their original paint are becoming ever more difficult to find.  In the right setting this will make a great addition to the decor or overall effect in that special setting.

Coles 
#2 Size Coffee MillColes #2 Size Coffee Mill  These #2 size coffee grinders by makers other than Enterprise and L. F. & C. are becoming very difficult to find.  This is a very early example and in all likelihood dates from the last quarter of the 1800s.  The paint is pretty good with some areas showing chipping and loses, but overall it is very nice.  The Coles name and the location of Phila. Pa. are cast into both of the wheels which measure 9 3/4" across.  The paint and gold highlighting on these are very good.  The decals are here, and may clean, but look worn.  The one apology is a small chip out of one corner on the original cast iron drawer.  The adjuster for determining the grind is present and operable.  The wooden base is original and very nice as well.  A nice example of a hard to find grinder

lfc_ci_coffee.jpg (24590 bytes)Cast Iron LF&C Coffee Mill  This grinder is by Landers Frary & Clark   They are often damaged, but this one is nice.

Erie 
 Lap Mill Style Cast Iron Coffee GrinderErie Lap Mill Style Cast Iron Coffee Grinder  The condition of the rare and desirable coffee mill is second to none.  In addition to the Erie cast into the lid, this one also has the name and location of a famous early Hardware company that was in Syracuse New York back during the late 19th century.  We have had and seen the Grand Union version of this grinder numerous times, and have owned the version marked Griswold a couple times, but this is the first time we have seen this variation, and have never seen a nicer condition example in any configuration.  A rare and desirable piece by any measure.
