Description from the seller

North Bros Mfg. Co. was founded in 1878 by Selden North as a foundry. In 1887, two other brothers joined the company and established it as North Bros Mfg. Company. By 1900, the company was a major manufacturer and employer in the city of Philadelphia, producing ice cream freezers, ice graters, kitchen utensils, and various consumer goods. The Stanley Works Tool Company acquired North Bros Company in 1946.

Gem ice crushers are manual ice crushers made of cast iron with a stainless steel blade housed within the body. They were typically used to prepare desserts based on crushed ice and are still used today, as electric ice crushers tend to crush ice; some prefer the thinner flakes produced by these manual ice crushers. The convenience and ease of use of electric ice crushers make them much more common than manual ones.

Shipping via traceable express courier for both domestic and international shipments.
