I like the single one they're showing.

Maybe that's it. All Saints is the one selling. The ad just isn't very clearly written.

"This is in working condition and we are not sure how old it is but we are guessing it is around the very early 1900's.."

Great guess!
Well, let's see, if a day really starts at 12am, and someone says they get up 'early' (around 7am) then I guess that makes sense.................

Hmm- buy them for $50, put in a few parts at $25 and about 30 hours cleaning and adjusting and sell them for $300 - not exactly a great way to make a living wage.
