Eyelet Punch, Industrial Sewing Tools, Vintage Metal Hole Punch (CS-A131)
Here is a vintage Bates Automatic Eyelet Machine, used for fastening eyelets into materials like fabric or leather. The machine features a circular, rotating mechanism with the inscription "Bates Automatic Eyeleter" and instructions to use "Bates Eyelets Only." It also includes the manufacturer's information: "The Bates Manufacturing Co., Patented, Orange, N.J. USA." The machine is made of metal. These were made some time between the 1920s-1950s.
I do not know how it works, but it makes a fun sound when you press the lever. I've attached a video.
Due to the age, there are a lot of dings and scuffs.
