I just looked at a machine that looked like this as far as the decals and colors, but it was patented in the late 1800s and the serial # is 11885467. It needs some cleaning and a belt and maybe some other parts. It has a wood box that fits over the machine and a side panel that lifts up when sewing. It has 3 drawers on each side that are curved and carved. All in all it looked to be in decent shape although it would have to be refinished and the metal parts repainted. The drawer knobs were fancy brass with Singer logo. They were asking $50. Does anyone know if it would be worthwhile to buy it and refinish and are parts and needles easy to find? What would it be worth? Thanks for any info you can give me...... Penny

It a a Singer Model 66-1 Treadle I got off Craigslist for free! :) :) :)

Works beautifully except for the bobbin winder I broke while cleaning her.

Isn't she a beauty. Haven't named her yet. :thumbup:
