Billy you are just very lucky or a very good barterer! I don't see what is so bad about that cabinet? I have bought much worse and fixed them up! I think, for being 112 years old, that machine and cabinet look better than most! Are we all looking at the same machine? It looks complete and you can still see most of the decals? I bet she will shine up very pretty!

I agree with this. I think that cabinet is very pretty plus most of the treadle cabinets that I've been seeing on CL, lately, are in really bad shape and don't have that pretty woodworking on the drawers, etc and they are asking so much more.
She is very restorable and I would love to have it I was just saying try and to talk them down some on the machine. The cabinet would be very pretty once you gave it a little TLC.
