Yes, Folks are cleaning out their closets and looking for quick cash. What I turned down today. I could have spent the day driving around the Bay Area picking up deals that had been posted on CL. There were two free Red Eyes, one in treadle and the other electric in cabinet. They have been picked up. There is a free Nelco still for the taking. Some 1956 Singer for $20, that is all the post says. A Franklin in treadle for $30.

And some other treasures to be had still.

Wilcox and Gibbs in a gorgeous treadle with manuals and attachments all for $75

The Wilcox and Gibbs treadle irons are what keep calling me; not the machine, but those gorgeous irons. Just one problem, I don't have the room for another treadle. I want a basement!
