No. 110 Mills

No. 65 Mills

Zimmerman first made sandstone mills in 1895, which are not included here - we are looking for photos or existing sandstone mills - both in wood frame and metal frame. That being said, the first mills were the No. 1 & 2 with A.M. Zimmerman cast into the plate covers.

The No. 1 evolved into the No. 10 and the No. 2 into the No 12.

No. 10 Mill - Newer version of the No. 1 Mill.  Note bracket to bolt to floor.

Zimmerman in 1895.  In 1903 it was incorporated as The New Holland Machine Company, New Holland, PA.USA.  These mills were made from 1897 to 1903.  In 1901 he started with his first engine, 1 1/2 HP, single flywheel.  See sample sales literature below.
