Had to laugh out loud! Wonder if the person who thought of this is named Boudreaux or Thibadeaux?

They have a number of sewing machines that could be cleaned, polished and put back into production. Or if you need parts it might be a good option. Please let us know if this is not a good resource.

Well since I am being such an enabler tonight I thought that anyone living in or around Frederick OK might be interested or know something about this place.

Hey, that's my kind of hang out. Too bad I'm here and it's there. I do love mail order, and have bookmarked. Thanks.

Tomilu, I put just 'sewing' in CL instead of 'sewing machine'. I found many more machines including 2 treadles for good prices. No phone numbers - just the CL address. I'm not sure my Microsoft Outlook works so I have no idea if my messages went through. Couldn't access the address in yahoo mail. Darn. A third ad had a phone #, but it's too late to call.

Does anyone know where I could find more info on the Minerva? I've done searches but all draw blanks, mainly dating info would be great.
Thanks again

That's OK.....I put my mouth (fingers) into gear before my brain forgetting that I'm a newbie here and you aren't familiar with my sense of humour!! Never my intention to upset anyone!!
Although in saying that, I have a net friend in Texas who says Texans have a similar sense of humour to Aussies!!
