    Such a pretty cabinet and machine! I am curious to know what year it might be. I have one in a parlor cabinet that looks very similar.
    Congrats on your great find!

    Well I took him at his offer and he even helped me get iit oin the car. When I got it home hubby unloaded and to my surprise it still have everything except the cord for the wheel Even a tin with extra attachments. He needed cleaned up and I just used spray dust and wiped it down.

    I'm so excited Rick went and got me a cord and is going to put it on the machine for me. Than I'll be pedaling my machine.

    Know nothing about it but will try and do a search as soon as I can. Its a Newhome machine and have no idea how old or anything else. If anyone has any info would love to here it.

    That baby is beautiful. Thank goodness you came along and saved it. What a shame if it had gone to the landfill. It is your lucky day.

    Beautiful machine, can't imagine leaving something like that behind. So glad you saved it. Someone somewhere should be missing it. Cherish your lucky save.
