It is funny CL can be way out there or there can be good deals.

Speaking of which - this 15-91 popped up today for $200. I do like that scroll work though :-)

Christine-

I have the identical machine and table, with a brown leather cover on the seat though. Your machine is absolutely beautiful! It doesn't appear to have been used at all. It was a steal for $50.

I restored my table using denatured alcohol. I only did the top... after evening out the shellac I used briwax and now it looks like it did back when it was made. The brown leather cover is still on the bench but I placed a suede cover over it. I love the 15-91, it's a wonderful machine.

Wow Christine!
If it started out like the one above you did a spectacular job!

Good looking machine and great price. Apparently she didn't know you were you.

And, lucky you. Right now I am working to get a 15 91 potted motor running on mine. My machine is just as pretty and worthy as yours appears to be, in a beautiful cabinet (one of those 4-legged ones), so I won't give up on this effort. A friend has offered me $250 for it; but I am not over the "I'm keeping this one" thought yet on this one.

I'm looking forward to getting into it!

Good deal! I've had very good and very bad deals on CL. Once I borrowed a gas pig truck and drove 85 miles to pick up a lovely parlor cabinet at a designated time only to be told someone else called and picked it up 20 min before I got there. Stood there with my mouth open, but almost lost it when I was told "you snooze- you lose". Just went home and sulked over $55 in wasted gas and 3 hours.

That's terrible.
I - on occasion - have had success offering a PayPal deposit if I can't get there at the speed of light.

I think you got a great deal for $50! It's beautiful...
