I love my treadle, too...my great grandma actually had an electric motor added to it, too...when I say I love it, I mean I love the memories I have of "Ma" and "Nanny" sewing while I was visiting, and their patience with me...I also love how it looks... :-) ...I just recently figured out that it may be nice to actually use it... :oops: ... after seeing so many on here sew with theirs!! So, dh is in process of cleaning it all up for me, and I can't wait to give her a whirl!!... Congrats on yours!!

I printed out the list from Singer for the serial numbers starting with AB a while back if anyone would want it.

Singer has removed the beautifully functional lookup for serial numbers, I can't tell you what it is. If you post pictures, someone will be able to tell you. :) |

I have a treadle and I just researched my serial number online. I was able to locate the year it was made and information from Singer on the development of that brand for that make and model for that year.
