    Looks like someone from Flea Market Flip got ahold of it.

    Yes, that place is packed. They also don't know much about sewing machines. They didn't even know that the head can come out of the cabinet to make it easier to move and load into a car. I showed them that. They don't have much time to really showcase items for sale. They start the intake of items on Sunday and must have them logged, photographed, described, tagged and entered into the computer by Wednesday night. There are only five people doing all this. They also have to move all the items around and set out all the chairs by the time they leave Wednesday.

    The ad says "similar to old sewing machine stand" I wonder if it's for some other piece of machinery like an old jeweler's lathe. I don't see any provision for a flywheel on the stand in the picture but the foot pedal looks like a rod or pitman arm comes off it.

    The same ad has been on Craigslist all over the Northeast for month. No reply to my query of what brand it is.

    Interesting cabinet, I wonder how the rest of the cabinet flap stays out. The rear inspection plate isn't original to the machine, but very pretty.

    I'm not even sure if the base is a Singer or not.
    Here's a great ad:

    I don't think the price is terrible either.
