The other one is a New Home. Does anyone know how to age the New Home? It is a really cool looking machine SS #NHR 114370. It has a double badge on the inside of the arm with the date 1869 like it is some kind of centennial machine or something?
I'll take a couple pictures and post them.

Nancy,
I have a New Home treadle made in 1891. Call this number and they can give you the year of manufacture.

Mine is a flat tension, vibrating shuttle, Series A and I was lucky enough to find the manual on Needlebar.
There is a picture of mine on page 466 of this shop.
