This is a circa 1870 Putnam that is being auctioned off and it ends tomorrow 3/31/21. It is in Arlington WA and is very complete, it looks like the only thing missing are the feed rods. It's too far for me but maybe someone on the west coast can get it. It is lot 42.

Nice size. Big enough to actually "do" something with it.

A nice early one. One of the feed rod clamps is sitting on the table.
I think this is earlier than 1870. Here it is from 1857.

Maybe 1860's, this one does not have the clamshell on the top which is probably a later design.

Those are really nice looking machines. Lathefan is on that side of the world. He should buy it. Hope he does

This one does have that clamshell design, but it looks like part of it is missing.
The clamshell is an earlier design.
