AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Guhl & Harbeck – Original Maschine – Hamburg”
The machine retains its original hand crank with wooden handle and the main mechanical components and gears.
Condition:
Authentic antique condition with visible signs of age, oxidation, surface rust and wear, particularly around the shaving collection area. The original lettering remains clearly visible.
The removable shaving collection tray is missing.
The mechanism has not been fully function-tested. The crank and mechanism show movement, but the sharpener is therefore sold as untested and no guarantee of full functionality is given.
A rare and highly decorative piece of early office equipment, suitable for collectors of antique stationery, mechanical devices and industrial design.
