Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machine
Does anyone know anything about a Wheeler & Wilson Model # 1 made in 1866? My girlfriend has one. It is very unique as the top folds back instead of being removed or fold to the left. The only thing that is wrong with it is it is missing the belt. Looking on the computer it appears to be a heavy or thick belt. Does any one know where you could find one. The drawers are all full of different things for the machine. She doesn't sew so she has no idea what all of the pieces are. I am going to go over to her house soon to look at it. If you go into their web site scroll down to the picture of the Man with the beard & the next picture of the machine with the box on top is hers. It has the lid flipped back on the picture on the right. Any info would be appreciated. Also does any one have any idea as to what this is worth? Thanks
