The Fleetwood Scroll Saw
July 17, 1981 – September 15, 1981
Featured is a Fleetwood Scroll saw, designed for the amateur of the 1870s. Made of ornate cast iron and foot-powered, it allowed the user to produce detailed cabinetry. Also on view are Scroll pattern catalogs, a finished comb box, and other objects. The saw was recently acquired from a Long Island estate.
