DH and I were antiquing yesterday and ran across this very old sewing machine. Last patent for it was 1845. Check out that foot pedal. It is in excellent shape. Beautiful cabinet. The back also opens up.

Wow! Never saw that before :)

What an awesome find! Love it.

beautiful machine not at all like the modern ones LOL

look how close the foot pedals are. That would be uncomfortable. Glad they improved over the years.

Neat machine!

I *THINK* it's an early Wheeler & Wilson....would give my eyeteeth for that one!! NICE!!
What was the pricetag on it?

Yes I think that is the name. They had a write up on it giving all the information. It was for $200.00......It is still there.....antique store in Aiken SC

Too far away for me, but that's a GREAT price!! Look at it...the leather straps on the pedals are still there...

~whimper~ That's quite a find!!

Neat to see. Thanks.
