We have a collection of about 75 drawers from that estate so I'll start there to see if one fits, if not I'll be on the lookout. I know a couple of you have this machine here so advice is certainly welcome!

Jennb, congratulations on your 1906 Pfaff treadle! She is beautiful! It is really neat to own a piece of history like that when you know that treadle is only here because someone loved it enough to bring it over! Pfaff's were not imported into this country until much later. The drawer is no big deal - they are pretty small. The cabinet looks great. The coffin top is in amazingly great shape. Have fun with her!
