It's the popular Singer White machine.

Well I'm amazed. Had no idea they made plastic or electronics in 1866!

Here is another one with "Grandma's old sewing machine" pricing. It looks a lot like my Nelco. But it is hard to tell in the dark.

This is my grandmother Antique sewing machine. This sewing machine is in excellent shape and condition. The sewing machine can disappear inside of the desk asking $2000.00 or best offer

I googled "Nelco vintage sewing machines" and the first image was your post on QB:

Ha! That is funny. I love my Nelco. It is as heavy as a Buick though.

I just saw this one on eBay. Seller needs to look up the definition of mint condition!

My "Make Offer" of $10 was rejected.

You'd think for the $1400 price he could have used marble or granite instead of formica to set the sink in a White treadle base!

That is hysterical! You didn't really offer $10, did you? Maybe I should offer $15...
