WOW, that is a lot of neat stuff!! Amazing how many different things they had back then, and most of them haven't changed much over the year.s

Miriam, when I get home from work, I'll pull some of your photos and label the parts for you...

Your top clamp attachments go to a White, National, uhmmmm...there are some others that I can't think of right now... :lol:

Miriam, Thanks for posting photos of all your cool attachments! And demonstrating how some work too!

This looks like it will be a very helpful thread. :)

Those look like the Greist attachments that I have. You need another attachment to fit them on. You can get the attachment for either a short shank or long shank. I found the attachments on ebay but didn't buy one. I have a whole box of Greist attachments that were given to me. You had another pic with the same kind of Greist attachments.

guaranteed it was a different box. So they have to have a holder to go on the machine?

Those look a lot like the attachments that go with my c. 1900 Standard Treadle machine. This was a black tin box lined with purple velvet. Attachments include various sizes of hemmers, an underbraider, ruffler, and tucker.

What does an underbraider do? Sounds interesting!
