A cast-iron sad iron with a wooden handle on a detachable metal hood and a side latch, shown with its dovetailed wooden shipping box. One end of the box is stamped "One Set Asbestos Sad Irons, The Dover Mfg. Co., Canal Dover, O."; the other bears a printed label advertising "A Hot Iron, Cold Handle" laundry irons, with pictures of an iron whose hood is marked "Asbestos Lined" and of bases marked "Asbestos." The hood was lifted from base to base as each heated on the stove, its lining keeping the handle cool.
