I have just made arrangements to purchase a New Williams Treadle in a beautiful oak cabinet. It is in very good condition & can't wait to get my hands on it. The owner has sent me several pictures & it looks amazing & in wonderful shape. I don't know anything about this machine. Can anyone help me with any info you might have.
Who made them - who is this "New Williams" a company that closed or operated under another name? Any help would be appreciated. I paid $100.00 for it but the condition is fantastic. The cabinet could have been refinished but the lady didn't think so. Picking it up on Monday as we are having a big snow storm here today in Northern Ontario but it beats the tornadoes the poor people in some of the States have experienced. My heart does out to them. Thank you in advance for any help I can get.
