OK, so you may not remember but ask family elders please. Apparently this man was a wagon maker expert. He also patented Roller Bearing Farm Wagons. I have a 2 ft
old thin wood folding ruler(4 pieces held by brass rivets). It states the following:
Peter Schuttler Company Founded 1843 Chicago/ The Schuttler Roller Bearing Thoroughly Tested and Guaranteed/ Roller Bearings Reduce Friction Save Time, Team and Money/ Peter Schuttler Patented Roller Bearing Farm Wagons.All that is on one side. The other side with measurements state:PETER SCHUTTLER WAGON/THE OLD RELIABLE/STANDARD THE WORLD OVER/MADE IN CHICAGO SINCE 1843. It is really neat & just want to know more-about ruler & is there a wagon museum in Chgo featuring his wagons? Thanks again. Sorry about Smiley-can't get him out!
