Scrap quilter........you aren't the only old one around here :lol: My 1st sewing was also done on a Singer treadle........sure wish I had it now! Mom traded it in on an electric model for me when I was in high school. Wish I had that one too! I picked up my present treadle at an auction about 35 years ago for $3.00. No one else would bid on it. It is a King, long bobbin, with lots of accessories and even has the manual. I was so lucky. Your "Climax" sounds lovely. I have only seen pictures of those babies!
