Well I don't know what she is and she's banished to the garage until I can get her cleaned up (she smells!) but here is my $14 worth today. I spent almost twice as much on the last one pictured, and she doesn't even sew! But the treadle moves up and back and the belt revolves and the 'needle' goes up and down. All to the tune of 'Oh, Susannah' (why they chose that I can't figure)

There is a little wear on the leading edge so I guess it saw some use. There was a big machine in cabinet/table at the sale too (not Singer) that may have been used more. This one is supposedly portable but I gotta tell you, it is HEAVY!
