Here is a fun vintage catalogue listing for a Fre-Zee-Zee ice-cream maker. The description in the listing claims this freezer is easy to operate, easy to clean, freezes quickly, makes smooth delicious ice-cream and uses as little ice as any freezer made. The ad is from the 1916 Sears Roebuck and Co. winter catalogue.
And a black and white clip art version of the image from the ad.

Lots of memories were made around the old hand cranked ice cream maker. Filled it with ice, put an old blanket or rug on top, and the kids took turns sitting on top (to hold it steady) while the adults turned the crank……mercy me our little backsides got cold. Made the best ice cream in the word….miss those old days.
Ahhhh, those are magical memories Elaine! Thank you so much for sharing! ♥
i have a old 2 quart “Maid of Honor” ice crème churn sold by Sears & Roebuck many years ago. It is wooden and painted green in color. I have tried to find out when it was manufactured but with no results at all.
On the underside of the crank mechanism is the following numbers/letters: 400 48 2qt & 2-48MH1?
Not sure if the H1 is correct. It’s difficult to see.
Also, on the arm crank handle itself is the follow info: 2-38A8
On the Canister lid cover another # 2-40CT-3. I believe that is correct.
If you could help me to determine the age I sure would appreciate it.
thanks
