Red Eye Treadles at Auction.....
Last night I was at a "general" auction in New Hampshire. There were 4 Singer Red Eye treadle machines (I think they are called "red eye"....they had beautiful red paisley type "flowers" on them) up for auction. Cabinets were rough and needed refinishing. Two were 3 drawer and two were 2 drawer...
One went for $25, the rest for $10 each! OMG....my DH had to hold my hands so I couldn't bid on them. LOL. I still have my treadle that I bought at the same auction house last year for $20. Still needs to be "serviced" and the cabinet needs refinishing.
Ah well... Can't believe the prices were so low. Is this typical or just a New Hampshire thing?
