I was just at a garage sale and they had a treadle machine there and it had FRIEND on it for a name like SINGER is anyone familiar with this name .and where can i find any info on this machine. I might go purchase it they were asking $75.00 for it and it was really in great shape and lots of decals. Thanks for the help mkay

Probably a branded machine by one of the major sewing machine manufacturers at that time. National Sewing Machine Company, Eldridge Sewing Machine Company...there were a few who would put names on for private stores, etc. Do you have a picture? Any idea how old?

The price is good. I don't now anything about the brand, but if the machine works the brand doesn't really matter to me. Would love to see a pic if you decide to get it.
