I need help with identification. The closest thing I can find using the same language is Lowentraut, listed with CS Osbourne in an 1885 hardware catalog, under tracing wheels.

They came from a long closed hardware store in NH that had been open since, according to my source, the late 1700's. I have my doubts about that, but 1800's I could believe. I cannot tell if it is a fabric tracing wheel or for leather use. Did Osbourne make a tracing wheel?
