I picked this up at the tractor show back in October, it was made by Clipper and was supposed to be for cutting corn stalks to feed cows. I'm using it to trim off the bad ends of cob corn. Just wondering something about it, when they were made, the rarity of it, etc....

I can't speak to the rarity either,but most every farm sued to have one. My uncle used to cut the tails off newborn kittens in one.
 
Naw his is not the clipper seed cleaner that is still out there. His is just what it is a cutter. Most common use was cutting broom straw or corn stalks. Nothing about a seed cleaner in his unit.
 
What NH8260 has in his picture is not a seed cleaner, and what you show on eBay is just the hopper for a
fanning mill.
 
Thanks for the replies, does anyone know what era it is from? People ask me how old it is and I have no clue!
 
Dad was in an antique store one time and telling that story to the owner. He said that before he got out of the store,he heard the owner telling it to another customer. lol
 
Yup, what [b:4b2c031276]jm.[/b:4b2c031276] and [b:4b2c031276]Randy[/b:4b2c031276] said is correct - it's a straw/broom cutter. Apparently the link I posted is just a portion of the whole machine, but not your machine.

I'd been wondering how that might've been used to "clean seed". Well, now we know.

I see this first link was posted on eBay back in 2013 but got no bids, so still cannot help on price.
 
Never knew a name for them but Grandpa used his just for cutting his home grown tobacko here in Ohio. And the company that makes the Clipper seed cleaner is A.T.Ferall located in Bluffton, Indiana.
