Offered for sale on eBay in May 2003, this rare 1872 treadle jigsaw, made by the Trump Bros. of Wilmington, Del., has an extremely fancy cast iron base and a graceful design. According to the eBay seller's description, the example shown below "is almost complete, but is missing the bar that attached to the foot pedals" and is broken on "the front piece where you would have put the work". It reportedly came out of a barn (keep looking, guys!) and it's weight was estimated at "over 40 lbs."
