Folks, yall will have to help us out with this one. This appears to be a vintage Montgomery Ward's 12qt aluminum pressure cooker. And that's about all we know about it...we literally have zero experience with these. :-/
This is part of my aunt's estate she's wanting to liquidate so her kids don't have to deal with a bunch of stuff someday. She says it was "in good shape" when she put it in the back of the pantry, but that's literally been a decade or longer ago. Here's what limited information we figured out so far:
One handle is in fine shape, but the other is missing a screw. Shouldn't be hard to find a screw to put in there, but since some folks may be picky about finding the original kind of screw, we'll let yall mess with it.
All of the wing nuts are in fine shape and tighten / loosen as they should. We can't see any reason why the lid won't screw down good-n-tight like it's supposed to.
The pressure gage on top appears to be in good shape and we're all assuming it'll work like it's supposed to. Do gages go bad from just sitting? We don't know. Something to consider.
The other bits n bobbles on top of the lid are things we're blatantly unfamiliar with and can't speak to their condition. If there is information you need about them, be sure to ask *thorough* questions...ask us like we're five...and we'll do our darndest to answer intelligently. :-)
NOTE: We are not a retail store, nor are we experts in vintage kitchenware. If there is information you cannot ascertain from this listing, PLEASE drop us a line and we'll be HAPPY to help any way we can from this end! Don't assume...ASK! :-)
