There's no belt on the wheel...it's an old treadle machine and still has parts in one of the drawers. I bet if I found a belt for it, it would still function. Those old machines were pretty much indestructible. The cabinet is in great condition.
Yea, my grams had one but I don't remember the box cover, she said it was from the 1920's. As kids we used to put paper on the slide plate and punch out designs.
Grandma F had one too but the machine folded in. I hadn't ever seen on like the one we have before either. Husband's grandfather picked this one up somewhere and gave it to me.
