Vintage Sewing Machine Shop.....Come on in and sit a spell
I'm up late tonight wandering around the internet. Well, I found this on ebay, Singer 201K EEE650981 in Rehoboth MA (never heard of the place).

This could be put in a treadle.

Very nice machine! What is the name across the front say? I first read it as hauntedhouse...eeks, too scary a name, then thought it must say Rittenhouse.
It says "Whitehouse".....I didn't find anything on line about this. (Maybe it came from there in one of the former resident's clean up campaigns???)

Here is another Whitehouse treadle.

It has to be a badged machine made for probably a department store, I'd guess. Miz Johnny what do you think? Have you come across a Whitehouse treadle?

I love this group, without this group non of us could see so many different machines.

The machine is all there and just needs some TLC to get her up and treadling.

If you give me the serial number off of it I can date the machine for you. The serial maybe located on the needlebar and on the bed of the machine depending on the year. I can not believe you have the needles to go with it also!! That is a find in itself. ;)

Look at this fabric for sale on Ebay! It's got pictures of sewing machines that look like our vintage favorites! Even a Wilcox and Gibbs chain stitch machine and a featherweight.

That is cute, I have some fabric that is nothing but treadles. I found it on clearance in Jackson TN and bought the entire bolt of it. I used some in my lap quilt I have over me right now.

Would be willing to buy another set of draws as the tracks are worn badly.
Any help would be great, Thanks Patrick.
