A treadle singer for sale on Shopgoodwill.com in the Nashville, TN area. Pick-up only. I wish I lived closer, I have been looking for one like this one. I hope it gets a good home.

I have a 1941 15-30 in the bentwood case. Also a 1921 66 handcrank. I get the feeling all the singers that weren't in a cabinet came in those cases. They were considered portable!

I am suppose to pick up the mystery machine this afternoon. I only know it is electric and in a bent wood case. This is exciting.
