"Old Trusty" antique egg incubator. Metal clad cabinet. I believe this is the 150 egg size. Made in Clay Center Nebraska before the days of electricity on the farm. Ran on kerosene. The kerosene burner on the side, heated water and it circulated through copper tubing on the inside, above the eggs. A thermometer was positioned inside behind the little window. It was used to set the adjustable heat control damper, yes it was automatic.
I haven't seen one of those in years. Looks to be in pretty good shape.

You have some great items. Thanks for posting them.
Interesting, such clever people to come up with such an invention.
I have one almost EXACTLY like this one. If not this exact one. Mine is in a bit better shape than this one.
Im wondering if anyone happens to know about what these are valued at?
Thanks so much!
