    So is it a fiddle base machine? Any idea what it might be worth?

    Yes, I figured it out, but it was a little tricky.

    Does anybody have a Singer 457 model? I picked one up today that was made in great Britain. Haven't researched the serial # yet b/c DH doesn't know it has been rehomed to my house. I do know it does a straight stitch and a zigzag. It is brown in color.

    Thank you Miz Johnny for the treadle suggestion for my 206K : ) I have been searching for a new case and never thought about putting it into a treadle base!!

    I knew when I saw that machine in the back of your picture that is was something special! Wow!

    Nancy

    The Mother of Pearl and the Household both make me green with envy! I hope you guys realize what great machines you have!
