Frister & Rossman 1907ish

Image
This machine is an amazing survivor from circa 1907, according to its SN.  Little previous use & works like a Swiss Watch nowadays. Probably always did: ) This machine came in a lovely wooden case & an almost complete original set of attachments, according to the Manual. Even has the original shop labels, hand-written 'Copperplate' from the era. Behind it you see its case lid. Book matched burred walnut centre panel, surrounded by lovely veneered decorative woods. A work of art in itself I say: ) Next up is a thread on the Victorian Sweatshop forum : ) A great, friendly VSM site. I recommend it.
