Vintage Props, Unusual & Decorative Antiques. Here for sale is a fantastic antique sewing machine made by Canadian company Wanzer B. It is dated 1882 on the thread cover. As you can see from the photos it is in a poor condition but the needle does go up and down when using the hand cranked wheel. Very rare and early example. Etched on one side of the thread cover is the company logo and patent date 1883. Richard Mott Wanzer was born in September 1818 and was the responsible for producing the first sewing machine in Canada. The Wanzer B model was patented in 1883 and was available in Great Britain in 1884. This example is therefore very early. The Wanzer B is a hand cranked model with no gears and works on a triple action motion. The machine was awarded a gold medal at the international Health Exhibition held in 1884. Shows extensive signs of wear and tear as it is old and has been used, but only adds to its character. Signs of rust and enamel peeling in places. This is a very old model and shows its age! Great decorative item which would look fantastic in any home or business interior.
