The cast aluminum citrus juicer was manufactured in the United States by Wear-Ever, a prominent brand launched by the Aluminum Cooking Utensil Company (later a subsidiary of ALCOA), which specialized in durable, stamped, and cast-aluminum kitchenware during the early to mid-20th century. Beside it sits a tinned cast-iron food chopper produced for Montgomery Ward, one of America's pioneering mail-order and department store giants; these rugged grinders were built by specialized iron foundries like Landers, Frary & Clark or Enterprise Manufacturing Co. and co-branded under Ward’s proprietary line to supply rural and suburban households with long-lasting homesteading tools. The lot is sold as is.
