That's an old fashioned printing press.

It looks like my grandfather and uncle pressing cider back in the early '50s.

I had never seen a cider press so looked it up. I see the similarity. I also found this diy cider press:

Featured snippet from the web
Place a smaller bucket upside down inside a large stock pot and put the sack of apples on top.
Placing a small bucket inside a stock pot is the first step. ...
The sack of chopped apples is then placed on the smaller bucket. ...
Stand on the bucket to press the apples between the two buckets. ...
Cider yield after pressing.

Q: Why are they pressing pears in the cider press?

A: There were no more apples after the apple farmer died.

So in law, one would apply the "cy pres doctrine"

Cy pres doctrine

A doctrine used to give a gift to a similar beneficiary when the true beneficiary no longer exists or is not available. The cy pres doctrine is most often used with charitable gifts when the charity named in an estate planning document no longer exists. In that case, the trustee or court may use the cy pres doctrine to give the gift to a similar charity to match the donor's intention as closely as possible.
