There is no treadle mechanism, I presume it was on a belt to an electric motor.

Mullens, WV (Wyoming County)
Mullens is located in eastern Wyoming County in southern West Virginia near the Wyoming-Raleigh county line. The city, which occupies a niche in the dissected Allegheny Plateau, is basically linear in shape, the corporate limits occupying an area approximately three miles in length and averaging one-half mile in width. The central business district is located near the confluence of the Guyandotte River and Slab Fork Creek.
The period of significance of the proposed district ranges from 1912, when the Virginian Railroad completed construction of its main line to the town, to around 1942, when the regional coal mining technology began to change radically by utilizing mining machinery to replace hand labor.
The site of the city of Mullens was first settled by Andrew J. Mullins in 1894 when he purchased 69 acres of land around the confluence of Slab Fork and Guyandotte River. Mullins Cleared the land and built a cabin near the present intersection of First Street and Moran Avenue and established a small saw mill one-half mile up Slab Fork. Two years later Mullins and neighbors built a one-room school, post office, store and boarding house. The existence of vast timber and coal resources had been reported by Jed Hotchkiss in 1872 and by 1903 logging operations were becoming established at Amigo and Maben, three-to-four miles distance from the Mullins farm. The logging operation attracted people to the area, and by 1903 it was estimated that 250 people lived in the immediate vicinity.
The first coal mine in Wyoming County began operating in 1908 on the outskirts of the proposed historic district. (1)

The stereo components are usually a pretty good deal. There's an excellent chance that they'll work, and if you want to outfit a rec room or something you get the job done for well under fifty bucks.

A collection of Pierce-Arrow and Peerless motor vehicles. A total of twenty-six cars attended the event.
I sold this old bike about 15 years ago. You can see some other stuff in the picture that is now in my shop. This is the garage and the shop wasn't built yet. The blue and white scooter is a Silver Pigeon and the on at right is a Cushman I see part of some other bicycles back there. The garage got mostly cleared out after the shop was built, but then we got the Volkswagen and the tractor.
Had a chance to photograph in the Regal today, and found these old beasts - one of them still works apparently.
Peerless Potato Chips, which was founded in Gary in 1928 right before the Great Depression, recently went out of business. It struggled after Central Grocers, its main distributor, filed for bankruptcy. Its owner also is being treated for terminal lung cancer, and he couldn't find a buyer.
"After 89 years in business we have been forced to close our doors," owner John Hogg said. "We can no longer pay our suppliers so can no longer produce. The Central Grocer's bankruptcy was the straw that broke the camel's back."

The pitch for the two power range eight sounds just like the fuel saver mode setup in my 2007 Chrysler 300C.
Clearly, Peerless was once a thriving town. It has several grain elevators. A big restaurant. Churches. A good size school. The problem is that when I was there most of those things seemed empty--abandoned, even. The church was overgrown. The school was clearly empty at a time when school should still have been in session. One of the elevators is falling down (though the others seem used). The big restaurant was listed for sale and seemed totally devoid of life. And there were far more abandoned homes than ones that are lived in. Peerless was very very quiet. I had to wonder what happened here, that so many people left? This place used to have plenty of amenities. But when I was there the only activity I saw was a tumbleweed blowing across main street.
"Peerless was originally a development of the Great Northern Railroad. It appears that Peerless once went by the name of Tande or Battleson, but because of the popularity of a local beer the name was changed to Peerless...Dutch Henry's Bar...is a namesake of an outlaw who roamed these parts in the late 1800s. A display of photos on the walls tells quite a bit about the history of the surrounding area. The original town, settled in 1914, was a few miles away. Like many other places in northeast Montana, the laying of the railroad bed required the town to be moved to the railroad." -travelmt.com
