I just bought a 15-88 at church silent auction for $45. I took it to my middle school classroom and a team of eager seventh graders helped me clean and oil her up. I love this machine! We hand cranked her until we could get the new belt on her. They are learning to treadle and zooming right along! Yours is a bit newer...love the black hand wheel too. I have a 1910 15 treadle that I have had since June. I haven't replaced her belt yet but I hope I like her as much as this one. I will give her to my niece next week for an early Christmas gift.
