Yesterday(5/29/10) I bought a White VS machine and treadle cabinet, my brother-in-law got it at a yard sale for
$50, the machine has almost no decals left and is missing the front slide plate. The machine and treadle all move freely, so I think I can make it into a usable machine. Sharon W. |
Here is one near you Charlee and it is cheap enough and is in great condition!

Billy Thanks Billy. It looked pretty good so I will go back and check it out again tomorrow. |
I really like the green Singer 15, such a pretty machine!
It makes my black Singer 15-90 look boring in comparision. Sharon W. |
