I am seeking information on "Harold's Best Dumping Molds" manufactured
by The Woodcrafters in Yakima, Washington.  There is a patent "
1794290.  I am seeking information on the value.  I believe it is a
butter mold.  It is about 2ft x 2ft x 2ft.

To fill in some details; according to the US Patent Office:

http://www.uspto.gov

The mentioned patent (1794290) is indeed for a butter mold,
patented Feb. 24, 1931 by Guildford R. Harrild (note the
spelling of the last name) of Yakima, Washington.


For whatever it is worth, here are two auction prices of
(undated, etc.) butter molds:
