Description: | Iron with handle with single side, and wooden top piece. Lifting mechanism at back for slug, iron is long and thin, tapering towards the pointed end. Has old Henry Preston Museum sticker on handle, but is not legible anymore. Possibly DN 2817, which states 'one handled box iron flat for ironing felt hats.' The shape of the iron seems to lend itself to this purpose. | Subjects: | Domestic Life | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
