    Description

    This antique, vintage food chopper/meat grinder was patented in 1904 by Hibbard Spencer Bartlett & Co. of Chicago. (The Made in Chicago Museum has very interesting write-ups on
    the company's history
    [madeinchicagomuseum.com/single-post/hibbard-spencer-bartlett] and
    its staple food choppers
    [madeinchicagomuseum.com/single-post/ovb-food-chopper].)
    The company's O-V-B ("Our Very Best") No. 700 chopper is a rare find. It is cast from a single piece of iron and operates by a wooden-handled manual crank. This particular chopper is in excellent condition -- the crank turns easily, with no cracks in the wood handle, and the bolt used to hold and stabilize the piece rotates smoothly in both directions.
