What a beauty.
I have a white treadle in a Parlor cabinet that was my grandmother's and she purchases it about 1920, so I don't know if yours could be close to that date.
She passes away in Sept 1941 and she left it to me, even though I wasn't born till Dec of that year. I also have my mother's Singer treadle, both machines are in great shape and runs really good.

So beautiful! My GM had one, but someone in the family snitched it without anyone finding out who had it. I've been thinking of getting one. In an EMP attack, they will be the only way to sew! :-D :-D :-D

Those older machines are work horses! I LOVE my grandmother's Spartan that she left me!
