McDougall Hoosier Cabinet Tin Flour Sifter Bin Glass Kitchen Vintage Antique
Item History & Price
Funny..., I bought one of these for top dollar on ebay a while back to restore my McDougall cabinet, and lo' n' behold, cleaning out our barn a few weeks ago I discovered I already had one waiting there all of my life! So, this is the extra that hopefully helps to restore your great old hoosier-type kitchen baking station. I'm envious of the cap on the bottom of the sifter, as it's missing from mine, but I don't have the heart to steal this one from its original place..., a...nd it wouldn't pull off easily anyway. :) I don't know what purpose the string tied around the sifter serves, but I left it there since it's antique too. Few small spots of light surface rust inside as seen in pictures. Exterior surface generally oxidized as seen but 100% solid and strong. Seams and solder joints all good. This has been in storage here untouched for at least 70 years, maybe quite a bit longer. Sifter crank works fine and nothing seems loose or out of place. I don't know what brand of cabinet this originally came from, but the dimensions are a bit over 26 inches tall max, 11 inches wide, and 10 inches deep.
