    Like this one:

    This one amuses:

    Just saw this one in my area for the 2nd time. I think the old fence panels add to the ambiance.

    1951 was a good year.

    a white treadle like one of Charlee's listings was at the auction today, I didn't stick around to see what it went for (have 2 already) but I am sure it was under 25 knowing the crowd

    I like that old Brother too - but not for that price...and I would rather have a funky old Morse
