One very similar to it went for $225.00 at an estate sale in Dallas this past spring. (I'm assuming it looks as good in person as it does in the photo and the decals are pristine.) Of course, it all depends on your audience.

I recently purchased a similar Singer in the cabinet type of machine.
It not the one like yours, with a foot pedal. I has the knee part,
that you push with your knee. This was the kind of machine I
learned on, when I was young.
I think it might be a few years newer than yours.
I paid $135 and it's in perfect condition ... works great!
Good luck and God bless.

I agree with $100.

I paid that for mine at an antique shop and was thrilled at that price. I had oil it and buy a new belt.
peace

My son paid $75 for mine. The cabinet is identical, but your decals are in a little bit better condition.

The decals are fabulous. If the cabinet is still strong I would not worry about a stain or two. There is a Singer store here in Austin, Northwest Sewing Center, and I took my mother's treadle there for a new belt and the needle was replaced. I saw a Singer treadle in a local thrift store about two years ago, decals were also in great condition, cabinet okay, priced $175. It wasn't the Red Eye,and the design is on the tip of my tongue, darnit. It sold within 5-6 weeks.

Very nice 66 treadle machine! I'm noticing it's got back clamping feet and main regular presser foot is missing. Finding a back clamping presser foot may be a problem, as they are much harder to find than side clamping feet.

I have a box of back clamping feet and attachments, but I don't think I have just the regular presser foot.
