The lever is made with a yoke “H” for the reception of the cam “C” and fitted with a set screw “T” to regulate the feed, as in many other New England type sewing-machines. The downward pressure upon lever is produced by a spring, to permit it to have an independent upward and downward movement. Between the spring and the cam “d” there is arrangement for a pin and a hole for pin to pass freely through. While the needle is in the fabric and the lever is returning with the foot “L” prior to a new feed-movement, the cam raises the leaf removing the pressure of the spring from the lever and foot, allowing foot to slide freely over the cloth.

VERY RARE EARLY MODEL WENTWORTH TOOTHILL Vtg Mid Century 50s 60s Sofa Bed Yellow
Posted by admin On July 23, 2018
This is the extremely rare earlier edition of the Toothill’Wentworth sofa with copper legs instead of the usual teak legs found on the later edition. A stunning sofa which we have replaced the cushions, reupholstered and webbed with Pirelli webbing. Constructed from solid afromosia and walnut with copper piping, a walnut veneered backrest and beautiful copper legs. A great feature of the design are two built in solid walnut sidetables, supported by copper fixtures at either side of the seat cushion which slide in and out to transform into a sofa bed. Condition – the sliding mechanism on one sidetable does not move as freely as on the other which is probably down to lack of use and may loosen again over time. One table top also has a small scratch with a slight dent which has been photographed. The backrest does show some signs of wear to the edges, some surface scratches, one is more significant and has been photographed. There is a line/mark on the wood where the metal frame supports on each side of the backrest. Please note that although the sofa overall is in great condition and has had a polish and been reupholstered it does show signs of wear and tear as to be expected of a sofa approx 50 years old.

Rare HUMPHREYS’ No 30 Bottle withCANNABIS, HARD To Find EARLY VARIANT See PHOTOS
Posted by admin On July 21, 2018
Rare HUMPHREYS’ No 30 Bottle w/CANNABIS, HARD To Find EARLY VARIANT See PHOTOS! Label clearly states primary ingredient was Cannab. (CANNABIS SATIVA) among other things, internal vial will be labeled the same way. This was marketed by the Humphrey Homeopathic Company as a preparation to prevent bed-wetting or other diseases of the bladder. NOTE: this is NOT to be confused with the much later number 30 variants where spanish fly is substituted for the cannabis ingredients. Also, this example is one of the earlier style wrapper only outer packages that was produced by this Company and has a pull string for opening it up, the later ones were labeled very similar but in square boxed packages instead. Now, I’ve had both variants of this item in the past and both are equally hard if not impossible to find anymore in this kind of shape!! Condition is excellent, small area on top where a rodent possibly chewed through package but still basically new unopened stock. Pretty cool that it has the original grease pen price of 30 cents written across label!! See all photos for condition clarification, this is the item you will receive. Overall length is about 2-5/8 inches, about 3/4 inch in diameter. This item REALLY needs to be on display in a MEDICAL museum. Follow your instincts on this one, you won’t be disappointed!!!! Please, see all photos for condition clarification, my photos are an important part of my description, so view accordingly!!
