Hi Folks,
I just joined and am catching the old sewing machine bug quick. 2 weeks ago I started to clean up and refurbish my wife's Great Grandmother's Minnesota Model D. That's coming along well. But I wanted to share another machine I just picked up. While wandering a local antique mall, I spoted this beauty - a Foley & Williams "New Model" complete with treadle cabinet. It is 100% complete including needle, shuttle and bobbin with thread on it. It was struck by how nice its condition is. The seller had a sign saying "everything 50% off". So it followed me home for $47. With a good cleaning and lubrication, I hope to have it humming along soon. I've been searching for information on it, but have found little. Can anyone provide more details about this machine?
