Vintage Sewing Machine Shop.....Come on in and sit a spell

Has anyone seen one like this? Can you tell me what type of machine it is? Did Janome have early badged machines or is it one they made. Is it worth $30? I am going to go see it tomorrow unless it is sold before then.
Thanks for all the support for this addiction here.

One is clearly a singer and the other is a mystery manufacturer for the moment. Naturally there is a pile of furniture about six feet high on top of them..which pains me a bit. Wish me luck. I want to take this one home with me.

I am beginning to think that half the fun is in the search. Kind of like a treasure hunt. Unfortunately, I have a "fix it" personality. If it's broken, I want to fix it immediately.
So... If anyone has 3 metal drawer pulls like the one below that they would be willing to part with...please let me know.
Again, good luck PunkQuilter at your auction. I am confident you'll find a treasure or two.

Just curious. Would someone share their knowledge about Badged machines?
1.) what is a badged machine?
2.) Is there way way to identify a badged machine?

To be able to identify them is by looking at the features and the peculiars about the machine itself. sometimes its easy and sometime its hard. I am in the middle of the Japanese machine research for the NeedleBar and the more I find out the more questions come to surface. I am trying to be able to track the JA and JC numbers to certain manufacturers and also being able to accurately date the machines.
But machine badging has been going on since the advent of the sewing machine so a lot of the early makers put other folks name on their machines like National, Free, Davis. They were the most popular to be badged.

I have my Singer model 66 treadle all torn apart. I took lots of pictures as I was going, hoping that I will be able to put it back together. Now I hate to ask this question, in case no one else sees it, but is this a chick, or maybe a duckling?
Singer chick?
