It is so wonderful to have a machine with a personal history. I have a Damascus treadle that belonged to my Great Aunt May. Unfortunately I never knew her - but it was always in the upstairs bedroom at my great grandmother's house and I loved that room when we went to visit. They are so much fun to sew on.

I am in awah with you over this machine. I have a treadle machine that Santa brought to me when I was in the 5th grade, approx 1957. the machine was purchased for $10.00 my father refinished the cabinet and the fixed the machine as well it was (frozen-up)(rusted -up).......I love my little Singer machine it sits in my den today, as a show piece. It works beautifully, making a wonderful stitch. The throttle plate the date is 1869.....I can just see all the items made on these machines....I just love to remissness about this era. granneyrat-Blackstone,VA
