    Found this in a box of "junk" we hauled home from my in-laws several months ago and looking at the case had no idea. Opened it up and this is what I found, appears to be complete but I really don't know. Bellows is still sound, quick search on google and I believe it was made in the early to mid 1880's. Any info is welcomed.

    Sorry I hadn't been around for several months, work got in the way of other hobbies.

    The page below has some decent information. Evidently, there were variations on this particular model, and if you scroll to the bottom, they list some of the distinguishing characteristics of each one.
