Supposed to have been brought over from Spain. Says it was manufactured in Great Britain. Serial # V467737. Has a coffin top, one drawer in the cabinet on left side. Is it worth $125? What would you pay for it? Seems to be in good condition.

Sure, it's worth it. The picture is blurry. Is it a Sphinx? Both the cabinet and the machine look good.

Cabinet and machine look very good. No I don't think it is a Sphinx.

You don't often find a treadle cabinet for the Singer 28 or 99. It looks good to me! :mrgreen:
I'd love to have a treadle cabinet for my Singer 99k.
