I have several vintage machines, but none old than the early 50's. I just looked at a 99 at an estate sale. It was in good shape decals were good and appears to be from 1928/29. The bobbin casing and bobbin were there. It had a power cord with the machine and the light would turn on, but the foot pedal was missing. I looked in the case (which was also in pretty good shape) but it wasn't there either. I had thought that the 99 had the power cord and foot pedal as one piece. The power cord with the machine appeared to be original and in pretty good shape. Is there a separate foot pedal? Where does it plug into the machine? Also, what is the availability of replacement foot pedals and how much do they cost?

Edit: Okay, I just watched a video that showed the foot pedal being stored underneath the machine. Is this common? If it is I may wander over to the sale tomorrow and see if it sews and if they will take less for the machine. It wasn't expensive but it wasn't exactly a screaming deal.
