Wow! Thanks, Kevin, I've never seen or heard of one of these. It isn't completely clear from the pix, but apparently it has a stepped down body, and the two outer cogs take diffeent threading from each other. Very elegant!

thanks harvey sachs mcLean va

OK, you made me do it, even though I didn't want to.

Spun off the outer 13 TOOTH cog from the SunTour "Perfect" bodied freewheel, and it is actually threaded to the body, not piggybacked or threaded to the next smallest cog as thought.

So SunTour did make a 13 TOOTH cog that threaded directly to the body.

Proof is in the pudding, or in the photos found at the following Wool Jersey location:
