Antique Spinning Wheel Popping Weasel Spinning Jenny 19th Century NC/VA Works Great

$219.95

Shipping to United States: $150.00

A Spinning Jenny, or Popping Weasel, 19th Century, in original and working order. Functional antique folk art, and a nice feat of engineering. Measures and winds one skein of yarn before it goes "pop," hence "pop goes the weasel." About 40 inches tall, 34 across and 12 deep; it will be disassembled at the base for shipping. (You'll have to gently hammer in two wooden pegs, pictured.) Original condition (it may have had a fifth leg) and still working after 150 years. Found in NW NC; likely local but no provenance other than locale. Shipping is an estimate based on USPS; it will likely be a good bit less and is via FedEx or UPS (overages will be refunded, but in the event of higher costs, e.g. West Coast, transaction is only complete when any overages have been paid.) I'll do what I can to make it as affordable as possible.
