I am a liar!
I am a liar says my cousin Fred! Fred and I go to pick up the last of the treadle machines that I bought, I told him that this is my last machine. He looked at me and said you are a liar and I don't believe it... so off we go and up stop at Jipp's ( hit or miss candy-stuff store ) did I hit big time with boxed food..... any way, there is a woman out front having yard sale and sure enough Fred, grabs my arm and points over there. Sure enough a black singer in a case, ( case is in bad shape ) inside is the cleanest machine... she wanted $30 for and it... so I asked her if she would take $20... NO but give me $25... so she came home with me..... never heard of it... singer 319w ...

I'm flabergausted - a 319!!! be still my beating heart!!
That would make me break all my promises of "no more machines" too.
I live in an area that has about zilch in finding neat machines at garage sales. I'm ready to retire and move south just so I can have more fun looking. Most of my machines are from at least 400 miles away.

No, I've not even seen one for sale, other than on Ebay. But if I did within 500 miles, it could be road trip time! that and a Trapezoid cabinet . . .
Not sure why I want one - it's those darn typewriter keys in the back. It does not fit into my collection, so I'd have to pretend it belonged to DH.
