Description: Antique and unique Enterprise Manufacturing Co. Philadelphia PA Sad Flat Iron, #50, Intact, with working trigger release of the cast base and wooden handle. This is a used old-time cast iron flat iron used by our grandmothers and great-grandmothers to iron their clothes. This example is complete with the wooden handle and features the operational trigger release of the cast iron shoe. This allowed the grannies to have several cast iron bases heating on the wood stove that she could quickly swap out as the one she used cooled down. The wooden handle protected her hands from burning. This iron base is lemon shaped with both ends pointed, allowing ironing in both directions. It measures about 6-3/4 inches long by 3-3/4 inches wide and weighs 5 pounds and 7 ounces. This would make a nice display item in any farmhouse kitchen and is sure to become a conversation starter.This unit has some corrosion but could be somewhat restored, if desired. Comes from a non-smoking and non-cat home. I will discount the shipping on this iron to $10.97; I will pay the balance to ship via economy USPS or UPS ground within the continental lower 48 states. Please, when you comparison shop, calculate the total price with the offered shipping. I discount my shipping in order to offer a better total purchase price. International shipments will incur additional shipping, handling, and/or customs fees. These extra charges are the responsibility of the buyer and will be calculated and added at the checkout page.
