Description
**Important** Please read below description on how to avoid high shipping costs.
This stunning Kenosha Fanning Mill Co. 'Pacific' Double Shake Mill stands an impressive 40 high x 32 x 51, making it a remarkable piece for any collector or historian. In good antique condition, it showcases largely intact original red, black, and gold paint, although with expected wear such as fading and scuffs characteristic of its age. The solid wooden structure displays minor splits while the cast iron hand crank and gear mechanism remain complete, further enhancing its rustic charm. Ideal as a display piece, this mill is an exemplary representation of late 19th-century agricultural equipment, with its vibrant stenciled paintwork providing significant decorative appeal. With clear patent dates from 1870 and 1871, it offers a fascinating insight into its historical origins. Don't miss the chance to add this unique piece to your collection.

Credit card fees apply both ways. 2.9% & $0.30 (4.4% & $0.30 international) through Lodestar Auctions and 4-5% through Live Auctioneers/Proxibid . Lodestar Auctions collects 7% sales tax for Illinois residents only. Live Auctioneers/Proxibid collects sales tax for most states. Check with them for sales rates for your state. Any unpaid items will be automatically charged by Live Auctioneers/Proxibid three days after end of auction. At checkout pay for the item only, shipping will be billed later.

Shipping:
Pick up and buyer arranged shipping is always welcome. We offer in-house shipping for items that can ship through common carrier. All items will be professionally packed at a reasonable rate. If you paid for the item via Lodestar Auctions or Proxibid we will have your items packaged and send you a link to choose and pay for shipping on the Lodestar Auctions Website.
**Important** Live Auctioneers has their own shipping program. We find it to be very expensive and slow. This is the rate you see advertised when bidding. We do not recommend using them. If you do use them you must checkout via Live Auctioneers and choose LiveShip at checkout. If you pay via Live Auctioneers and want our In-house shipping you must choose self-arranged shipping at checkout. If you checkout via Lodestar Auctions this does not apply. I apologize if this is confusing, Live Auctioneers purposely arranged it this way to push their own overpriced shipping service. We are not happy about this and are trying to make it work.

All items sold as is. We do our best to describe accurately and take plenty of non-touched up photos to best represent the item. Any lost or damaged item due to shipping must go through the carriers. Buyer pays any return shipping costs regardless of situation.
