Those machines will probably stay in the farmhouse attic another 20 or 40 years...along with the stamps, the vintage 70s frog cookie jar, old birthday cards from the '40s, furs and deer mounts, flour sacks and rocking chairs, white wicker baby buggy, Victrola, East lake mirror and Victorian side table.
Those furs and deer mounts probably need to be burned right now. They may be full of maggots and other horrible stuff. Those things don't keep well under adverse conditions like an attic.
