The neat thing about that machine is the large size treadle! The wheel is much larger than regular home use machines, so the ratio of treadling to stitches is different, and I have always wanted one! Luckily it is too far from me. I have way, way too many machines.

Actually it looks to be in good shape for an industrial. Remember that they were almost never produced in a "gloss" and the decals were mostly before WWII for industrial machines.

I have a 1946 241-12 and it is basic black with not much in the way of frills, but dang does she zoom!!!!!
