I finally managed to finagle a deal on one of these very very rare machines.

It is on the way to my house as of today!

I do not have a solid date for it yet, but I believe it is a model #9 and I believe it dates from before 1870

Congrats on your new machine. hope you have lots of fun with it. never find anything around here like that. Maybe are some but are kept a deep secret. Glad you could get it.

Wow, I've never seen one like that before. You no doubt will turn it into a showpiece.

Very cool. It's almost minimal in design.

It will be interesting to see what year you find on that, I know someone that has three. two are open stands, but the flywheel is mounted center and sideways , the other is a parlor it's flywheel is on the right side, none of the heads are that style. from what I have seen in photo's they put the flywheel on the side in the 70's ???????????

This has ladys 160 + treadles hand cranks and toys. then start counting the eletric's and homeless heads LOLOL..
