H.F. Osborne Antique Patented Cast Iron Meat Juice Press, Newark, NJ, 1884Here is an awesome antique meat and juice press that was patented by H. F. Osborne in March of 1884 in Newark, New Jersey, and is so marked. This press features a cup with a spout, a pressing plate, and a crank handle, and has everything needed to operate.
