Ok Billy after I sent this I figured out that you were not referring to a particular machine, you were just referring to pre-civil war stuff?

Pre and during the civil war machines. Industrials would even be better knowing that they sewed Confederate uniforms.
The wooden machine is a patent model. They made the pre production machines out of wood to see what worked and didnt work. That machine is one of one that was ever made. The Smithsonian has sales every few years to clean out their attic so to speak and a few patent models will show up here and there. I have seen Singer patent models go for less than $100 bill. The next one I will be at so I can but up as many as my bank account will allow me to buy.
