Ok, I gotta ask..... How did you reach that conclusion?

Probably because one site that pops up is one of those "what is my antique worth" garbage sites. And some totally uniformed fool said it was worth $500 or something like that.

Most "antique appraisers" don't have a clue about sewing machines, and get the dates way wrong because of the patent dates, and also think that because they "name" is uncommon, it must be worth more.

I don't know if that lady is even active here anymore. This is a pretty old thread. Neat machine though.

I have a Willard A treadle machine in a parlor cabinet with a bullet bobbin similar to the Singer model 27. I can't quite figure out how to thread the tension spring after the thread goes through the tension wheels. Can anyone familiar with the Willard machines give me any advice?

I believe this is similar to your Willard.

Nice acquisition!
My understanding is that it is a badged White.
