No. 8 Universal Bread Maker

By Snookies, 26 April, 2010
Description

This tin container is the No. 8 Universal bread maker, made by Landers, Frary & Clark of New Britain, CT. It won a gold medal at the St. Louis Exposition in 1904. There are instructions for making the bread embossed on the top and it was meant to hold dough for making eight loaves at a time, so it is quite large. It was well taken care of and is in excellent shape.

Unfortunately, I do not have a picture to submit at this time.

I am interested in finding out how much it may be worth.
