Corkscrew

"T" shaped corkscrew. Wooden hand grip across the top, with one end carved slightly narrower. Printed on the wooden part is "Lawrence A. Wilson Co., Ltd. Wholesale Wines & Liquors Montreal Made in USA Trade (Decapitator) Mark WRC Wire Cap—Lifter Pat. Mar. 1, 1910." Around the middle is looped a piece of steel, 2 ends twist together at the top half, the bottom is just one, which would twist into the cork. Some light rusting.
