Nuther freebie. When I search CL, I just put "sewing". And there it was on the "free" section. Naturally, we had to check it out. A treadle Singer in the plain vanilla cabinet. Looks like perhaps a 27 with very silvered decals. Also included a puzzle box. This was one of those "its for free on the porch" ads.
DH also picked up a vintage girls bicycle, The Raleigh", that had the little basket and original bell. He knows someone who restores them.
Don't know if it is a curse or blessing when the thrift shop and estate sale folks want your name/phone in case they get a machine.
