Esteemed Colleagues –
We have a fanning mill in our collection –
who doesn’t? – that is obviously missing some of its parts. Does
anyone have a diagram of the innards of one of these, or some good photos of
one that is intact? It’s the old people-powered kind with a crank and
paddles and screens, probably late 19th, early 20th c. It
would have screens if it had them, but they’re missing.
Thanks, as always,
Anne
