Hey all... the picture is a bit fuzzy on the ad, but it looks to me like a Memphix Sphinx in MINT condition. Says working, I can see the pitman rod is attached, all irons. If I was in Augusta, I would likely at least go see it... if it's in as minty a condition as it looks, I'd buy it. There's another one down here by me in FL that they want $300 for. I'm just sayin....

the Ad reads:

Singhr Treadle Machine - $100 (Augusta)

Old Singer Treadle Sewing Machine in Cabinet. Works great, our girls learned to sew on it and have now moved on to electric machines!! So this is just sitting and taking up room. Asking $100 firm.

Email them and ask them to send you a close up picture so you can see if the machine is what you think it is.
