This machine was owned by George Huffman, the man largely responsible for bringing Davis from Watertown, NY to Dayton, O in 1889 and resides in a Dayton museum. The machine was made around 1889 and the motor appears to have been added at a later date. I'd imagine this was a one of a kind machine. I'd fall over if I saw something like this for sale in the wild and would be tempted to trade my first born
