You hav a nice rare Wings decal treadle! The RAF has a different design, with little lightning bolts. I have one of each. I'm happy Someone is finding good deals, and a 222- Wow!

I'm glad I checked back and got the chance to see your treadle. I would have to agree with Monroe on it being a "Wings" decal. I got a RAF design last month and it looks different. Yeah, with the lightning bolts around the base lol!

Did not know about the wings. That one rarely comes up for air - it's in pretty rough shape. The women I bought it from made moccasins and it was well used. I mainly have it as a side board in my living room. I just think my area must have add a swack load of seamstress and tailors back in the day as there just seems to be so many around. And I'm sure every farm had a sewing machine too.
I find I don't want many more. To much of a good think is too much of a good thing! As time goes on I'm ultra picky - I'll hold out for a rocketeer and tan FW. The best part is it might be tomorrow or 15 yrs from now. Lol. I don't really do the eBay thang.
Have a great thanksgiving everyone.

Love both of your machines!! Congrats on finding the little 222 with all the toys!! They are rarely found around here and if they do come up, they always start at about 1400+ - unfortunately, I really don't think I will ever own one or play with one.

Contact Glenn Williams for a hoop. That's where mine came from, and obviously he ships to Canada

They're not cheap, but they're hard to come by...
