Saw one like that at an auction and thought someone had added a different base to it, so didn't stick around to bid. Aw I should have. Nice find.

She's a beauty. Good luck with getting her fixed.

That is a beautiful machine and cabinet! You were lucky to find it. It's only a few days older than my husband and he's "still in good running order" up here in Stanwood!

What a great find. The Goodwills here does not have stuff like that. Never seen one like that.

Straight leg wooden treadle with a model 15. I'm jealous--it's going to be gorgeous. Is that an "India star" decal on the bed?

Is that what the decal is is called?? I called it a compass. I knew it was a bit different than the bed decals on the other Sphinx's that I have. You can see from the closeup of the decal that this girl needs a lot of cleaning. She comes in the house tonight to start that process.

Thanks for the information.
