n Mixin'

Found this yesterday. $2.00

Was in Cincinnati and on my way out of town last night stopped at
the St. Vincents on Colerain. Of course it had to ride home with me!

Apparently was sent from Presto to the buyer in Cincy. Postmarked from
Jackson, Mississippi June 14, 1965 for $1.07 in postage.

It's very clean and looks to have only been used a few times.

Very cool and "Jetsonian"

Excellent Score!

I will snap one of those up if I ever have the luck to come across one.

Wow, that is one freaky mixer! Once again, leave it to the AW family to come up with things I've never seen or heard of, before. Awesome.

The mixer itself

is a very good mixer, and comfortable to hold. Presto continued to make the mixer for more than a few years. I remember it was introduced in the '66-'68 period. The bowl, however was less inspired. Consumer Reports, and the mother of a friend of mine who had one with the bowl, stopped using the bowl very soon after getting it, because the bowl could be messy!---ingredients would slop out of the ends of the bowl.

However, the mixer, again, is very good.

NICE catch, with the pamphlet and the bowl!

You Will!

LOVE it, I have both versions, with the bowl and without, the bowl is ok, but as said above can be messy and hard to handle, but the mixer is the easiest portable to use ive ever seen.

I too am on the lookout for one of these every time I'm at a quality estate sale with lots of vintage goodies.

Hey Bill what a kool find !
That mixer is truly odd and interesting.
Lawrence I never thought that it could be messy at the ends,
now I can see how that could happen in the oblong bowl shape.
When I came here Yrs ago I posted a pick of it from a vintage mag.
Nice !
