A little piece of early kitchen history: the Nip-It strawberry huller, a spring-clip tool made to pinch the green hull off a strawberry in one quick squeeze. Hullers like this were a common sight in early 1900s kitchens, and many were stamped with advertising and handed out as giveaways. Today they are popular with collectors of vintage kitchen gadgets and small kitchenalia, and one looks great in a crock of utensils or a display of old kitchen tools.
