Remington Sewing Machine Treadle Base, 1873
Cast-iron frame, belt-drive for leather straps, treadle- operated, walnut plate with recess for a sewing ma- chine, overall dimensions 27 1⁄2 x 15 3⁄4 x 28 1⁄2 in. – Note: The Remington Company, a booming producer of weapons, sewing machines and many other mass prod- ucts, was very interested in technical developments and was also looking elsewhere for more products to make and sell. They signed an exclusive contract for the pro- duction of typewriters with the developer Christopher Latham Sholes. The Remington 1 was the result. It is similar in style and painting to the sewing machines of the same period as components from the factory were used for both product lines. A sewing machine table of slightly different design was located under the first typewriter and the treadle was used to reset the platen. – An interesting addition to a Remington collection.
