I've got one somewhere I'll dig up and get a picture of. The gear head is similar to the Lady Elgin but with a chain instead of gears.

Darrin, yes, that's the image I have somewhere. That saves me some time to dig for it. Now if you could just find the real mill for me that would be super.

According to my litterateur they were sold for only a few years and then the snow jr came out for a few more. I wonder what that looked like I'm assuming they dropped the chain drive system. Just a guess !!!

Love the SNOW mill. Most likely at the very bottom of the junk pile at an old farmstead.
Call Dan Benjamin for parts. P M me for the phone number.
