    This is my new "favorite"! It's a Brunswick VS treadle. It was made for the Montgomery Ward stores. This one is dated 1929. I got it on Craigslist over the weekend. I just love it! And now I'm obsessed with vintage sewing machines and have been looking for more. I want my next treadle to be a Singer. And I'm bidding on another Singer (portable) on Ebay. I just hope I can get them at a good price.

    Good for you! I need to find a base/cabinet for a White Rotary machine. Bought the head hoping it would fit in my Singer treadle cabinet and it doesn't. Fooey!
