I was at the Goodwill and found this. It called my name and I had to purchase it. Make in 1919 in New Jersey, cabinet will have to have work

I have a 66 red eye treadle (see my avatar) - nice machine - congrats on your find.
Our local Goodwill just opened - had a few machines reasonably priced. I was there a couple days ago & the same machines have doubled & tripled in price - someone evidently thought they were listed too low. But..... I bought the one I wanted in a decent cabinet a week before they raised the prices!

I am not sure if I paid to much, it was $100. The cabinet will have to be refinished since painted green isn't my color, but it came with attachments, a cleaning & adjusting manual and extra belts. I am wondering what I can move out of my sewing room to put this in, when it is cleaned up. (Ha Ha)

Very nice machine-cabinet looks like it will clean up pretty easily.

Lucky for you and the machine!! I have a treadle similar to yours. I like the 3 drawers on each side instead of two.
