409A -This is not a Pressure Cooker Model. All Presto Pressure Cookers have the number 409A stamped on the bottom of the cooker, this is not the model number. It is a number used to indicate the product's listing by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).

If you have a newer model, you can usually find your model number on the bottom of the pressure cooker or canner body. If it's a very old model, the number can probably be found on a label attached to the top of the cover.

This cooker was submitted by Mr. Murray who reports it was made before 1950. There is a patient # of 2210100; it is very hard to read. The zeros could be eights. This is his wife's great grandmothers and they want to restore it back to working condition. Unfortunately, replacement parts are no longer available.

Mark who lives in Ohio, originally from Kentucky, submitted these photos of the 48-6 Presto model on 7-26-2021. He's had this cooker for over 20 years and it came from his grandmother. His advice? "Parts are hard to find or impossible - be careful if the cooker means something to you." He grew up preserving his own food and he says it and it feels good to do it yourself. Mark uses his pressure pot every summer for fresh green beans - it is a fond memory of his grandmother.

Mark sent us these photos of a mid to late 1940's National Presto 4 Quart Pressure Cooker. He also included photos of a recipe book and parts list from that same era. The book has a 1945 copyright stamp. Note the wooden handles and oversize jiggler.
