I saw this on Facebook Marketplace. Looks like it would clean up nicely. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/it ... 713858796/ The asking price is $300. Jacksonville is near Springfield, (Southern Illinois). I hope someone on the forum grabs it.

I love it! It's an ideal quirky machine for the off brand collector. It is proof that you don't need to spend a bunch of money to buy an interesting upright. Jerry B.

I found this earlier today on my own. 6.5 hr drive from me.....still thinking about it. The machine has the flat front and less ornate feet, but still a really interesting machine.

Re: Puritan - Jacksonville Illinois
Given the position of the horn mouth, perhaps I should buy one as a Christmas present for our cat.
