127 with the Sphinx decals. The cabinet is # 5. I really like the 7 drawer cabinets. A very nice find.

I can feel the excitement! I'm so happy for you.

It needs some tender loving care, I found some great advice on this forum when I restored my old Singer tables. You need to be careful around the old shellac. I know you'll have fun with her!

She's pretty. I think she looks like an Eleanor. Classy lady.

She's a beauty! My mom had an old Singer Treadle -- but I was too young to remember what model or anything!

Don't have any suggestion for a name, just enjoy her.

I even have the key to the drawers in it. That is super special!! I can't wait to get her all oiled up and a new belt for her. Hope I can find one.

What a great find! What is your BIL's name? Maybe honoring him somehow for your good forture? or maybe sister's name? Got to give some credit to the people who provide for you .....
Now what is your sister going to do with the contents of that estate? There must be some other finds there.
