Lot includes a sixth plate ambrotype of inventor Reuben Daniels; three American Institute of New York medals, a silver for Daniels' Wool Picker, 1850, a silver for Daniels & Raymond's Granular Fuel Cutter, 1855, and a bronze for Daniels Machine Co. Cider Press & Cider Mill, 1869; two printed advertisements for the fuel cutter; and a carte-de-visite of the cider mill. Ambrotype and one medal housed in Union cases, and one medal housed in a pressed paper case. Reuben Daniels (c. 1800-1876) was a prolific inventor based in Vermont, who was granted at least 25 patents ca 1834-1872, for agricultural, woodworking, and other machinery. His name appears in many trade journals and patent reports of that time, but personal information is lacking. We know he worked in the Winooski Falls/Woodstock, Vermont, area, where his Daniels' Machine Co. was based, and that his brother, Thomas E. Daniels, was also an inventor, credited with a highly successful lumber planer. We could find no information regarding Mr. G.L. Raymond. The American Institute of the City of New York was an association of inventors chartered in 1829, which existed independently until the early 1980s, when it merged with the New York Academy of Sciences. It held annual exhibitions for over 150 years, at which gold, silver, and bronze medals were awarded for the top inventions of the year.
