The last patent date on the slide is 1885, serial number 426889, and she's got a wooden pitman. Nancy, did you ever clear up the wooden pitman age thing? Everything I've found to date indicates a pre-1890 machine...but I'm just not confident that it's correct...

The attachments are interesting too....several of them are broken :( , but some are still good. This machine is going to be fun to play with if I ever get her back together!! She's apart in my dining room right now...

Charlee, Congrats!! You will have that cleaned up and purring for you. Sorry to hear about the attachments.
Thanks! Hopefully I'll be able to find some for it...they're kind of weird looking! :lol: If not, it won't really matter...I'm gonna love this machine no matter what. :)
