The seller is not happy how much value this lost when she "drove it off the lot". Writing to make you giggle.
One of those overpriced Janome Sewing Tables for sale

"Davis Company 1907 upholstery treadle machine" sounds like code for something interesting... (The date on the White is too old to be the one I'm looking for. Pretty and narrow table though.)

Well, the free to good home (so as to not be recycled) machine turned out to be an 1889 Domestic that is complete minus the bonnet lid and a couple screws. Even has the shuttle, bobbin and a few basic feet.

This machine is still available free to anyone (you pay shipping)

I swooped on two of the drawers to make my two tone 4 drawer into a 6 drawer.

Good deal on the Davis. Judging by the cabinet it's the last of the Vertical Feeds that uses the 15x1 needles. The seller made the sale more difficult by not taking a photo of the head.

(Get the dang plant off the cabinet)

Neat base on this Necchi. Factory or home made?

Factory though not common. I've seen other pics of this case. The coolest Necchi one I've seen is a fold out case with a drawer underneath.

Ad for a sewing machine? I can't see a needle.

Common mistake. Uncommon price.
Should be more like $5-10 for a buttonholer.

Email them back and ask what type of needle it takes.
