[QUOTE=deplaylady;4823030]It's beautiful! I just got a New Home today, it's called a 'light-running New Home sewing machine" on the manual, and it's in the No. 4 style treadle base. Serial number is 272868 - any way to date it?

This will give you your manufacture dates, as far as I can find out. Looks like 1882 !!! Beautiful find !!
