Caution- Do not click link if you are pregnant, or have a heart condition.

On the other hand, if you need a good laugh, click away.
These must have been made by the husband of the lady that embroiders on bread. Another example of way too much time to waste and a (probably) beautiful machine destroyed.

AMEN!!! What was someone smoking when they put that POS in there in place of the original machine? Wonder if the treadle guts were left intact??

Steve,

That cabinet is gorgeous!! It probably originally held a Singer 66 or 115 (or maybe a 15-30 or 127) . It is a Singer Drawing Room cabinet # 22.

Excerpt from one of those giant block of text yard/estate sale ads...

"Singer sewing machine's with the pump no electric pugs works great and a brother,white, ones too with hand carved drawers just two of them other is portable."

Must be one of those hydraulic Singers with the manual pump...I'd high tail it up there if they had the electric pugs but without them the machine is probably useless. You hardly ever see them separately on eBay.

Don't bother looking for the machine or the cabinet, this pot head only has a little book in very poor condition

Default Before you scoff

Imagine what your portfolio would be worth is they get this price!
