The Dairy Swing Churn was first manufactured by J. F. Hillerich and Son of Louisville, Kentucky.
They called it the Dairy Swing Churn and also manufactured it under the Curtice patent of 1891.
J. F. Hillerich and Son would become famous as the manufacturer of Louisville Slugger baseball bats.
Switching from butter churns to baseball bats turned out to be a great business decision. The churn was made of Louisiana cypress wood, joined with tongue and groove construction, with brass hoops and a wrought iron pipe frame.
The churn is in excellent shape.
