Default I'm looking for information

about a Richmond treadle sewing machine. It was my husbands Grandmothers and it's still in good working condition. I've never heard of a Richmond. All I know is that it might have been made by The National Sewing Machine Company, so any info would be appreciated. Thanks bunches.

Above is a link for a wonderful restoration of a Richmond. You are correct, it was made by the National Sewing Machine Co.

The tension disks on the Richmond are fascinating.
