Wonderful collection of early Americana. Knitting machine looks excellent (no apparent rust and only a few spots where the paint was chipped off.). I have not tried its knitting ability but I do know that as you turn the handle all the gears turn and the needles go up and down. It is a 1908 model and was made to be clamped onto a table or work bench. from looking at the 1908 Catalogue everything except an extra cylinder seems to be included plus some extra needles and those V shaped wires. I am also including the Catalogue, correspondence from the company that includes order form, price list for machine, price list for types of yarn, 2 sheets of pattern samples., a letter from satisfied customers that you could write to to get their opinions, and a letter from 1970 when the owner was apparently trying to sell it to the spinnerin yarn company. The box is unmarked but the interior looks similar to an original I saw.
