OK...total novice here....I know with other antiques, when they are "restored", they lose value. Is it the same with sewing machines? Would repainting/restoring the decals lower the value? I loved the lesson on the rash....to me, that would make the connection to the original owner greater and the sentiment even dearer. [Please remember, I said I am a real novice....]
I am sure that others may have their own opinions also. Why don't you post your question as a new topic on the VSM list? You will get a lot of answers. |
