Wheeler & Wilson #9 Treadle Cabinet

This cabinet had no machine in it, so I'm guessing at what it would have been based on references and other pictures. Definitely Wheeler & Wilson, the name is cast into the irons at top.

This is a coffin-top type of cabinet, with beautiful pressed-wood details. Note the distinctive circle-like enclosure for the top of the pitman, and also that the flywheel is on the outside of the side-iron.

No hinges or latches. Pan is in reasonable shape, some minor rust. The hole is 14-1/4"x6-5/8". Width of the irons is 17", a bit smaller than standard Singer irons.
