    It was made by National and is a 3/4 size machine. It's on my "want" list due to the deco faceplate and because it will round out my set of National machines of that time frame.

    The second one is a Household.

    Second from the bottom



    Rodney, I ended up with an "extra" reversew machine. I bought one in a case that did not have a foot control, and then this fall came upon one in a cabinet for $25, and just could not pass it up!

    Yeah, the sinks are becoming popular. Haven't seen one yet that didn't turn me off as much as the lamps do.

    The National machines have kind of grown on me. National seems to have been ahead of their time in some ways but behind in others all at the same time. They're an interesting mix.

    The sink doesn't do much for me.
    I know in some cases the woodwork is too far gone to restore but many times good machines and cabinets are butchered and the results are almost never as nice as what was there to begin with.
    There's another treadle sitting next to the sink. I wonder what kind of atrocities will be done to it.

    I was thinking the bed decal might be an india star but now I don't think so.
