Default vintage Pfaff for $50

That appears to be a cherry of a machine. Pretty cool how the chair is part of the cabinet. I would love to have a vintage machine like that. You know that some little older lady sewed and sewed on that machine. Probably needs a drop or two of oil, and she'll purr like a kitten!

My wife is hopping up and down saying: "I want it! I want it!"
For myself, never mind the machine, I want the cabinet .....

Nope, not going for it. Couldn't go for the two treadles in West Peoria, so we sure can't go to Chicago.

ah . . is chicago further from you than W. peoria?

Don't you wish you were so far away that it was RiDiculously impossible, so you'd feel better? I know it stinks even more for you than it would for me, because you can actually help them, where I would just 'have' them, you know?

((Joe and old machines)))

I'm in Springfield, Peoria is in the middle between here and Chicago. Yeah, Chicago is quite a bit farther.

What a beautiful machine and cabinet. I would love to have it, of course, I don't know where I'd put it. LOL
