    Just beautiful! I love the old machines with all the color works on them.

    I think it looks great and you can tell it was well cared for. Make sure you have all the electricals checked out before plugging the machine in and using it. No need to make yourself a victim if you do not need to be! :wink:

    You bet! There is a place under the motor that doesn't look so good. The wire is kind of loose. She will just be on display for awhile. When the weather gets better, I'll haul her into get cleaned and checked out. Thanks for the warning :lol:

    She is in wonderful condition, I have two plainer versions of this machine. Also two red eye treadles The decals on yours are beautiful and have lasted well. Do get her rewired - these old dears can be a tad dangerous. From one who knows! If you just want her for antique value then don't interfere with anything on her, but if you want to use her, the hand crank idea is an excellant one, another lady suggested that earlier and I agree with her. Great find, lucky you!!Check out NEEDLEBAR for more info on her :)

    She is in good shape for her age. The paint looks very good. Must not have been used much. Did you get extra feet with her?
