Question
I have a picture of something very strange that looks like some kind of antique bobbin or spindle.
Is there a way to send you the picture?
Olivia - you can send a picture to me at bacchino@twcny.rr.com, but I'm not that familiar with wooden bobbins. There is a book out on them that may help you more. It's been offered on ebay and I'm sure your local bookstore could find it for you. Barb
