Early English Rack & Pinion Corkscrew
Early unmarked example of an all steel English rack and pinion corkscrew similar to the Lund London Rack. The top handle and pinion handle are steel and similar to the handles on Royal Clubs made by Charles Hull and BB Wells, so may be by the same manufacturer.
See Ellis & Ellis – Corkscrews – British Registered Designs page 156 and Peters - Mechanical Corkscrews page 227.
Condition – Good, dark patina, the casting is poor quality with seams or lines showing on the frame, some pitting on the handles and frame, worm is intact.
