Hello,
From the tubular frame & drag line reel that looks like a Wirt & Knox cart. Do those white wheels
go on this cart. It looks like it is sitting on its reel. Does it have brass hubcaps? I think they are on the older models.
I have a Wirt Knox Cart. For a photo go to WWW.firetruckers.com and click on the photo. Then in the top right click on the Photo Galery. Click on Bill Graham. My cart has a pat. date of 1909. I understand that the patent lasted about 20 years. If this is true my cart was made between 1909 and 1929. My cart has Wirt & Knox cast on the wheel hubs I think.
I sold one in good condition last year for $575.00
