THIS IS SUCH AN AMAZING FIND FOR US. THIS INCREDIBLE AND VERY RARE ANTIQUE SOLID WOODEN VICTORIAN/ EDWARDIAN (LATE 1800's TO MID 1900's) "BEAVER RATCHET" SCREWLESS PRESS MEASURES 71cm LONG x 39cm WIDE AND HAS TWO CLAMPDOWN HANDLES ENSURING THE GARMENT BEING PRESSED IS HELD SECURELY. THE PRESSES WERE MADE THROUGHOUT WORLD WAR ONE AND WORLD WAR TWO. THE PATENT NUMBER BOTH REFER TO USA PATENTS IN THE LATE 1800's. BESIDES BEING A TROUSER PRESS, THE PRESS WAS ALSO USED EXTENSIVELY TO PRESS A GENTLEMAN'S TIE AND BUTTON COLLARS TOO. I HAVE NEVER COME ACROSS ONE LIKE IT BEFORE AND CAN NOT FIND MANY OF THESE AWESOME PRESSES ON THE INTERNET.
