Item description:

Description: A primitive twenty-piece collection of antique architectural hardware and industrial salvage components. The lot consists primarily of variable awning, clothesline, or sash block pulleys featuring integrated threaded screw shanks designed for direct timber mounting. The assortment is divided into three distinct styles: a left grouping of nine heavy-gauge cast iron loop-top pulleys heavily coated in a distressed layers of weathered off-white paint, a central array of nine galvanized and raw iron teardrop-shaped single wheel block pulleys fitted with integrated lag screws, and a lower accent trio comprising a small pocket wire pulley, a heavy black-oxide iron eyelet block, and a matching surface-mount circular base hook plate.

Dimensions: The main body frames across the collection range between 2.0 inches to 3.5 inches in length (excluding the screw threads), with wheel block widths between 1.0 inch and 1.5 inches wide.

Markings: The side walls of the galvanized teardrop-shaped frames feature distinct raised foundry production mold codes, including model tracking marks reading "5-12" and "5-16". The painted loop-top block models are unbranded.

Condition: Weathered antique salvage condition. The entire twenty-piece mechanical hardware lot is structurally complete with all mounting thread points and frame blocks fully intact. Widespread rustic wear and industrial patina are present throughout the lot, including deep red-brown rust oxidation, extensive paint flaking, variable surface pitting, and thick historic grease or workshop soil accumulation within the wheel channels. Internal wheel rotation varies across the items due to age, storage residue, and minor localized oxidation.
