Hey, I'm Peter, a self confessed corkscrew
collecting addict.
I regularly buy interesting old cork screws at
antique shows, flea markets, yard sales, antique
malls, auction houses, on ebay & via other
Internet sellers but I'd be very happy to skip the
middle man & buy directly from you. You could
save the hefty commission fees that ebay &
auction houses charge & I'll guarantee you a
quick, easy and trouble free transaction at a great
price. I could even collect for cash if it suited you
best. Just drop me a line, preferably with a
photograph or two of the corkscrew(s) you have
for sale & I'll get back as quick as a flash with a
great offer. I've bought a number of complete
collections over the years & I would be happy to
buy your collection of corkscrews.
Really looking forward to hearing from you!

corkscrew patented by Philos
Blake. It was patented on March
27, 1860 & is often marked on
the handle March 27-60. Happy
to buy yours!

A funky looking concertina cork screw. This
American design originates from the many
French examples & is known as The Peerless.
It was patented in 1885. Often found marked
"Peerless PAT. NOV. 10. 1885". I'd love to buy
your one.

This corkscrew was patented by Charles
Chinnock in 1862. They are often found
marked on the fancy barrel "Chinnock May 27
1862". Please drop me a line if you'd like to
sell your one.

This corkscrew was patented in
1874. Looks like a simple
enough mechanism.
Sometimes they turn up marked
on the top "PATENTED APRIL
21st 1871. If you have one I'd be
happy to buy it from you - feel
free to get in touch

A very cool ratchet corkscrew patented by
Walter Dickson in 1871. Sometimes this
corkscrew is marked "W. DICKSON PAT AUG 2
1870". The handle attachment can be used as
an cap lifter, hammer, wire cutter, screw driver
or chord cutter. There are other variants of
Dickson's corkscrew too. All are of interest.
Would love to buy yours.
