I forgot to ask. That 27? that CD posted has a case that looks much older than the round top Singer cases I'm used to seeing. When were those cases made? If I saw that machine myself I would have guessed it was made in the 1890s based on the case design. Also, is $850 reasonable for that machine. I'm clueless.

Oh it's local. No. It's a 27 with a common decal set. Unless there is something there uncommon that I don't recognize.

The beer cooler: $20 sewing machine cabinet from thrift store, yard sale, whatever and what looks like the inside of (what do you call those things?) one of those electric pans that get used for gourmet dishes like teriyaki meatballs at pot lucks for probably another $10.
It's an insane price but if it's storing beer it's not a total waste.

It's the case that was throwing me. I haven't seen that style on a Singer. In another case or cabinet, I wouldn't even ask.

Thanks for posting the beer cooler. That’s my second photo of one in my collection of photos showing odd uses for sewing machines and cabinets. (Sorry, I can’t show the first one. The copyright doesn’t belong to me.) It’s a treadle frame with one of those barrel-looking coolers mounted on it. The barrel is on its side, and hinges in half lengthwise for an elevated cooler with a cover.
