"Singer Treadle, I have had this machine for the last twenty years and sewed a few quilts on it. It was the best machine I sewed with. My toodler of course had to mess with the tension and I just never took it to get fixed. The drawers are in excellent condition and the cabinet is strong not really in need of refinishing more authentic. The last two digits on the serial # are 25 so I think that means its from 1925. Asking $175 contact Michelle at "

Singer Treadle Sewing Machine:WORKING SEWING MACHINE, Includes the belt which needs to be installed. VERY BEAUTIFUL. All origenal, un-restored...will make a great restoration project. The cabinet is VERY STURDY and SOLID. Priced to sale quickly: Only asking $175.00

Same machine now down to $110. http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/atq/3690856263.html I wonder if they will throw in a few cans of WD40 for free?

"Antique Singer Sewing Machine - $1 (Upland)
I have an antique sewing machine that was removed from a treadle cabinet. I have no idea of the value (if any). On the front right is what I belive is a model # GO932565. Mechanically OK (in that everything moves) from a novice's view point. Possible trade for ??????? Call 765-***-*** for more details."
