Anyway it is an Eldridge "B" and the best I can tell it was made in 1885. It can not be any later than 1886 but I have a real good friend Annie looking at a bunch of photos of the machine with the serial to help me out in getting the exact year.

Now I am sick, I made the mistake of taking DH to look at a machine just like that last summer. He talked me out of buying it because I didn't 'need' another treadle! I remember it was very reasonably priced too!

Love the machine Billy!
