History This citrus juicer was brought to the US by two brothers who grew up in Vinales, Cuba where the family had citrus crops and in Havana they had a home and exported items to the US. The brothers had hopes of starting a juice bar in the US but the tragic political events in Cuba ended that. One of the brothers was born in 1903 and so I would guess this commercial citrus juicer was new sometime between the years of 1920 and 1940. The base is wood and the juicer is metal.
