That's a different looking bobbin case on the Graybar - I've never seen one like that before

It is rare. It is probably valuable. But not this much.

I changed my mind. The plant stand was not the worst that could happen.

Yeah, I saw a near perfect one with decals remaining sit on Ebay UK for more than a year. Started at $800, then lowered to $400, once it dropped to below $300 it sold

Is that a Singer 12?

xxxxxxxxxx

The singer is a total make over. forget the graphic's and look at the style of lettering and how rough yet all black the body is

"I'm told that it would be valued around $800 with the foot pedal, but I have no time to go hunt one down."

I don't know, I think I could be bothered to hunt down a foot pedal for an additional $600.

It's amazing what sellers think that people will fall for.

That and there's no way a 99 with no foot pedal is worth anything close to $200 anyway.
The treadle is a complete makeover. I haven't decided if all the wood has all been completely replaced. The table top certainly has. Singer wasn't in the habit of using roll cut red oak veneer on their tops. Walnut or quartersawn white oak were the woods of choice back then.
