About Eppelsheimer & Co.,
New York, NY
The largest manufacturer of chocolate molds and ice cream molds in the United States from 1880 – 1947. Eppelsheimer’s mark was a child’s spinning top with “MADE IN U.S.A.” under it. The mold number generally appeared either under or above the mark. Occasionally Eppelsheimer marked his molds by stamping “EPPELSHEIMER & CO. N.Y.” on them. Only very few of Eppelshiemers’ molds were dated; the date was usually spelled out; for example “NOV 1938.”
