"Antique shabby Singer sewing machine - Beautifully re-imagined"

Can't figure this one out at all, look at the date and time of the event, and just the general write up...

That first one has me stumped - can't find the serial number in ISMACS - only interested because it's a "silver".
I like the "matching stool" makes me wonder what makes someone think they match? Maybe they both have wood on them? I do have the stool that would be the mate for that style cabinet (also sold by Singer).

Ismacs says:

[TD]JA series

[TD]- 1936

The stool matches because they're both perceived gold mines...

I sent a question asking why it is so expensive.

I think the frigid temps around here are affecting this guys brain....


I have a 1925 Singer Sewing machine for sale (see pics). The minimum value for this vintage begins at about $400 on ebay. I'm entertaining offers over $200.

Craigslist. No pic, just 22,000 worth of sewing machine, so they say. Guess that's more incentive to get mine running! *headdesk*
