This is up for auction on the shopgoodwill.com site. It appears to have a treadle foot but it's tiny. It can't be a base can it?

ArizonaKat,
That is a Franklin 1911 that was originally in a parlor cabinet. I was eye-balling too for the accessories and owners manual. I'd love to run that manual across my scanner and make a good copy of it.
As Lori said there is a lot missing in that ensemble.
Here is a photo of my Franklin when I was working on it. You can see the small treadle plate and all the other things that are missing from those on Goodwill.

ArizonaKAT,
Unless you already have a hand crank for a Franklin machine, you can't just use any type of hand crank. The aftermarket
hand cranks being sold now only work with Singer or the Japanese model 15.
