    Hmmm the cabinet is a Singer Model 40 just like the one I have that my Singer 101 is in. The 101 was made in 1931. OK, if the friend dated the sewing machine as a 1919?, I bet it is an electrified machine.

    That machine is a 66, made most likely no earlier than the 40's, and could be as late as the 60's! All that fluff he wrote only serves to make him look like a fool...

    I bet those CL posters don't have any idea that we have a thread devoted entirely to their misinformed, uneducated, completely full of BS, over inflated priced ads and that they give us such enjoyment!

    Yes, they have no clue at all. But don't disclose it, sure would end our enjoyment for sure.

    You know, if they did just a little bit of research before posting their machines. I'm sure QB would pop up in some search. It generally does when I'm googling just about anything quilt or machine related.

    Some people do... Since there are the "what is my machine worth?" threads from first time posters regularly.

    ok is it just me or are the pictures of this leading me to believe that someone mounted a 1950s cabinet top to a treadle cabinet? Something strikes me as odd with how that machine is sitting in the cabinet.
