Antique Hobart Grinder 1923 "Peanut Machine"

I work for a small company that buys and sells restaurant equipment. A few weeks ago I made a deal with a guy, part of which was trading in what he described to me as a, "Older grinder that I use for making sausage every now and then, it works great!” Long story short, sight unseen I gave him some trade in credit; and my delivery guys brought back this gem… At first I wasn’t quite sure what to think, but the more I look into it the more I’m intrigued. I have contacted Hobart, and after giving them the serial number, a very nice lady called me back and said, “The only information that I can find on this unit is that it was manufactured in 1923. It was originally a Peanut Machine, used for grinding/making peanut butter.” Honestly that’s more than I expected them to be able to find about it, but it just makes me wonder… How rare is this particular item? I’ve been searching around the internet for a while now, and I can’t seem to find anything similar; nothing with a serial number in the 200,000 range like this one. Anyway, I uploaded some pictures that I took of it quickly the other day. I’ll take some better ones when I get to work on Monday. It’s sort of hard to tell in the pictures, but it still has the original red paint; with this great aged patina. I’m really trying to figure out if there is any sort of antique value, any collectors for this sort of thing? I can tell you that it’s worth about $500-$600 as a working grinder; it is older, but obviously it can stand the test of time… I would like to see this find a good home, perhaps as a display/decorative piece that can still work just as hard as it did 80 years ago… Is there a market for something like that? If so, what sort of price should I be asking? I thank you in advance for any help, and wish you all the best!
