Default The Oldest Sewing Machine in Our Collection.

This is the oldest machine we have in our collection. You may have seen it before when I posted it on an antique thread, but I am so proud of it and can't wait until we finish refurbishing it. It is an 1852 Grover and Baker Treadle machine. It is in good condition, just needs to be polished and cleaned.
