Have an antique Acme crusher at least I think thats what it is and help on identify this item would be appreciated. Looking to sell item would hate to see it go for scrap if someone wants it

I'm just guessing that you may have a piece of machinery made by the Acme Road Machinery Company which was located in Frankfort, N.Y. in the early 1900's.

If you Google the name of this company you can find a limited amount of information. I found one catalog of their machinery.

Unfortunately (for me), it is printed in French----but it does have a number of good pictures.

It seems that several other catalogs are available in print and ebook format.

There seem to be several youtube videos of Acme crushers in use. They are interesting to watch, but don't show much detail.

I don't have a clue about the market for antique crushers. You might list your location. I imagine that shipping would be rather expensive.

This should be a link to some of the digital collection catalogs in the Carnegie Library of Pittsburg.
