New Guy,
Chances are it will be gone. It is a good deal. I really like those 15s.

Number 1: Yuck
Number 2: Not MOP just really good decals and at a good price.
Number3: Both machines are decent but it's the model 12 that really has my attention.
New Guy: I never see model 15s for $20. They're great machines. If I had the money it would have came home with me.

I agree. For some reason the la Vencedora decals that show up here are always with high asking prices. Finding a singer treadle for the 3/4 sized machines though is even more unlikely to happen.

You may be right about the other treadle legs. I'm not the greatest with some of those particular brands, it just looked a little like it said domestic backwards on the left leg. Either way, still a frankentreadle.

Now, honestly, I've seen some pretty bad machines, including the cabinet and Minnesota Model A machine that once belonged to my great grandmother, but this is the worst I've ever seen. It really makes me sick!

The Franklin Parlor is a nice looking cabinet. I won't speak for the machine because I really don't count myself as having enough experience or knowledge to do so!
