The date was right on the top of the handle. I don't think it's worth the hassle to make it shiny again. I prefer to call it patina. It would eventually just come back anyways.

I think the rust on mine may actually make it work better. It is good to know that my antique capper is the latest technology.

I can't take credit for the board or the piece of leather. I found it in a old house years ago. Actually I didn't even know what it was. When I started brewing I glued a few garden hose gaskets...

I have a similar Capper. Mine has a board attached to it with a chunk of leather over the steel foot. On the other side mine has a spring. Any chance yours is missing the spring?

I have a Pumpkin Porter that ended up 10.67abv. I tried one a few weeks ago and it's coming along nicely. I'm hoping it mellows with some time on it.

I don't have a red Baron. I measured my bench capper and the bell is about 29mm ID using a ruler. Seems like you would see a difference.
