Antique Industrial Towsley Factory Cart Iron Wheels from Iron Anarchy
What a find! Super rare pair of MASSIVE cast iron wheels in an ornate spoke design.
From the late 1800s by J. T. Towsley of Cincinnati, Ohio for their #27 cart. Made using the sand casting technique where sand is compacted around a wooden model to form the mold which is then cast in iron, destroying the mold upon removal of the wheel.
I believe these to be unused new old stock; I scrubbed off a thick layer of rust, but no signs of wear and remnants of the original black painted finish. You will not come across anything like these again.
You can find these and tons more antique and vintage industrial casters and wheels for sale here on my website.
