I figured it could always be converted to a hand crank or treadle. What do you think, is it worth the $30? It sure was pretty, had a manual, shuttle, bobbins and extra feet. I'd also like to know a little more about the machine but could not find anything on the web.

Thanks!
I am behind on posts, so forgive me if this has already been said, but the reproduction handcranks work only on Singer and some class 15 machines (usually Japanese). Original handcranks for other brand machines are very hard to come by.
