Purchased during the research on the domestic technology for the Love Leisure Laundry exhibit to show a modern example of an apple peeler that was still available on the Canadian market in the 1990s. Acheté pendant la recherche pour une exhibition pour montrer un exemple moderne d'un éplucheur encore disponible sur le marché canadien pendant le années 1990.
Function
To peel and core apples. Utilisé pour écaler les pommes et enlever les trognons.
Technical
An example of a very persistent technology that has basically existed in unchanged form since 1878, and is now marketed toward Amish community and toward customers who insist on using manual kitchen appliance to prepare traditional recipes. Lehman's products are also often purchased by people travelling to countries with limited access to power, for example by missionaries. Wooden apple peelers with metal blades were produced in America ca. 1750. Since 1849 cast iron replaced wood as the main material of construction. In 1878 Reading Hardware Co. introduced an improved version of cast iron apple peelers, called No. 78. It became very popular, and by the 1930s, when other peelers slowly disappeared from the market, it was the only peeler still produced and sold in North America. Lehman purchased the moulds for the peeler from the Reading Hardware and still produces No. 78 (now called Lehman's Best Apple Peeler). Each peeler is hand-made. Un exemple d’une technologie très persistante qui existe essentiellement sous une forme inchangée depuis 1878 et qui est maintenant commercialisée auprès de la communauté amish et des clients qui insistent pour utiliser un appareil de cuisine manuel pour préparer des recettes traditionnelles. Les produits de Lehman sont également souvent achetés par des personnes voyageant dans des pays ayant un accès limité au pouvoir, par exemple par des missionnaires. Les éplucheurs de pommes en bois avec des lames métalliques ont été produits en Amérique ça. 1750. Depuis 1849, la fonte a remplacé le bois comme matériau principal de la construction. En 1878, Reading Hardware Co. a introduit une version améliorée des éplucheurs de pommes en fonte, appelée No. 78. Il est devenu très populaire et, dans les années 1930, lorsque d’autres éplucheurs ont lentement disparu du marché, il était le seul éplucheur encore produit et vendu en Amérique du Nord. Lehman a acheté les moules pour l’éplucheur de la Reading Hardware et produit toujours No. 78 (maintenant appelé Lehman’s Best Apple Peeler). Chaque éplucheur est fait à la main.
