I have been envying all the wonderful treadle machines seen on this site and finally found one in good condition at a reasonable price that has all the parts and is in good working order the decals are slightly worn but some future time I will have them replaced. I help out at several pioneer days festivals and history outings and this will be fun to demonstrate with.
I will have to find out the age. Moosegirl

Great find, and I love your plans for demos!

The only Singer replacement decals I've seen are for the Featherweights...but the worn decals just indicate that she's been used and loved...you'd have to find someone to paint the machine to "replace" them.
