Aluminum Coffee/Tea/Chocolate Pot

By snowbird, 19 July, 2008
Description

I thought this was a percolator coffeepot. It had a basket for the water to percolate through. The spout appears to be more like a teapot spout. It does have a glass top to check to see the brewing coffee. It can hold 6 cups of water to brew. The markings on the bottom are the trademark WEAR-EVER and then a circle with T.A.C.U.Co. going one way in the circle and  Aluminum  the other way with 4 stars in the circle. The numbers are slighlty worn but the first number is either  an 8 or 9 and then 72, so either No. 872 or 972.(Leaning more towards 972)  After looking around could it possibly be a chocolate pot and someone just put the coffee basket in it? I have added pictures Thanks
