Can anyone help me with determining if this machine is worth buying? The seller says it is early 1900, treadle, Imperial made in UK.

Looks like a Singer class 15 clone. I don't think it is that old, but I could be wrong. You should post this on the Vintage machine thread so more people see it. A lot of people on there who are very knowledgable.
It should be a good machine. Does it have attachments and manual? Depends how much they are asking for it. |

The base MIGHT be old, but the head definitely isn't. It's a Japanese 15 class machine, and it's probably a perfectly fine machine, especially if you can get it for cheap.

Thank you very much for this information. He is asking $99 and knowing this information, I think I'm going pass on this one. I just totally knew nothing about it. I'm getting educated. :-)

I see it is in a Singer cabinet. Not is the best shape but looks restorable. If it was me I would offer him 50.00 for it. It is not worth more than that, IMO.

Thank you, I've made the decision to not buy it. Besides, it's a pretty good distance for one that is not really worth it.
I appreciate the input. |

http://website.lineone.net/~lindave/other.htm The machine, that you posted pics of, could have been manufactured in early 1900. |
Wow, thanks for the research info Cathy. I probably should have, I just was not sure and not knowing enough, I didn't.
I did however come across a sweet little treadle in a cabinet. I'll post some pics when I get her cleaned up. Also needs a little work. I love it. The model # is G0369829 |
