I had some free time yesterday, so I ventured up to an antique mall that I hadn’t visited in some time. In the past there was a corkscrew case, as one of the CCCC’ers sold corkscrews there. He has since moved to California, so the number of corkscrews to be found there could be rather limited. I went anyway.
After finding 27 of those horrible grapevine handled corkscrews, I did see several more desirable corkscrews lying about.
However, I only purchased one. A stained waiter syroco that is missing his nose…apparently he had too much to drink and fell flat on his face. Still he was a fair price.
Pictured below are some of the mall offerings.
I probably would have snagged the brass double lever with the eagle too, it\’s a bit unusual and looks well made
