very old machine..
Today i was in a local thrift store I really like. In the back I found what I thought was just a table with doors. Opened them and in side was a treadle machine. Notice the topo opened and when I did, up came this beautiful old sewing machine. Sorry I don't remember the brand, but was sold by Sears and Roebuck in 1908. (a copy of the certificate was in the drawer and they had the original in the office. Price was 350.00. How I wish I had that kind of money. I would have had it in the car in seconds. She even offered me 15% off. Sadly my budget is no where near even that. Main reason I was in the thrift store...Table was about 2 foot square and a dark wood. Just had to share...
