It is a Household, I found it on the suttle cover with the last Pat date of 1880. Made in Prov.,RI. It has the shuttle in it and does move but stiff needs to be cleaned. I does not show in the picture but there is a knob on the wheel for hand turning. It is in good shape for the shap it is in. I just gave $20.00 for it so if it ends up a door stop I am not hurt. Have you seen the price they want for door stops. If anyones knows any more about it let me know. The bobbin wheel slides over and is driven by the wheel. There does not seem to be anything broken off the bobbin winder but I was wandwering about thread alignment. Thanks
