Whatever the hell a "scuttle scoop" is, this appears to be one!

It's for scooping coal out of the coal bin.

Ah! Well, that explains it. Growing up, we were too poor to be able to afford coal. We had to rely on lighting daddy's "natural gas." Thank God he was a big bean eater! :stogie:

It's only a guess but I'm thinking it made it easier for the coal to slide out.

Actually, if I understand what I have been reading, what we have here is a Scuttle, which is commonly used to hold or store small amount of coal. The Scoop part of this, is actually a small metal, shovel looking thing. They go together.
