A Peelle Motorstair in the Sheridan Village

(circa 1955) - Tulsa, Oklahoma, U.S.A.

Patrick A. Carrajat informs me that, "This is

the original Peelle with coil handrails.The coil handrail was composed of a round

rubber bellows over which the metal coil

was fixed. In the photo you can see

sections in silver and sections in black, this

was

the common way of setting these up. The

coil handrail proved hard to hold and was

replaced with the bracelet handrail which

used a sectional bellows that came in 10 ormore different lengths which were attached

to a chain via special clips. The actual

plastic bracelet inserts were shaped like the

top of a conventional handrail and you

simply popped them onto the bellows. The

inserts were available in many colors

including black, silver, gold, red, etc." Thank

You Patrick!

Quite a few flat steps in London, United Kingdom

This makes it hard to see all the way to the other end when

stopping and starting the unit. You really need another

person or a barricade at the opposite end for everyone's safety.
