Antique Vintage Primitive Hunt Helm & Ferris Steel Track Hay Trolley Carrier

This is an original early antique cast iron Hunt, Helm & Ferris Steel Track rail runner hay trolley with patent dates from 1885 and 1886. Condition is very good, all wheels turn, the trolley swivels in the middle as it should, and nothing is cracked or repaired, but one of the bottom wheels turns a little loosely on the axle because the collar on both sides of the wheel hole (the piece that keeps the wheel from wobbling) is chipped, shown close-up in the last two photos.

There are also a couple tiny chips on the edges of that wheel, but the remainder of the trolley appears to be free of damage. It has a little dirty residue left inside but all loose debris has been removed. Remnants of the original blue and gold paint are still visible on both sides and the entire piece has acquired a naturally aged patina. The trolley measures 19 1/2" L at the top, about 14" H, 6" in diameter across the rounded bottom piece, and there is 2" of space between the ridges on the outer edges of the wheels on top.
