    What is this metal sided new idea spreader?

    This new idea spreader has been in my family for quite sometime but has nos been abandoned. No one seems to know the exact model but it's a new idea. One thing that's stumped me is that it's metal sided, not wooden like most of them. Anyone have any clues what the model might be?
