    Miriam, Excellent work in cleaning this gent up (looks like a boy to me).
    You know I've been thinking this one is a boy too - a real tough mean one. The dude that had his tv on the cabinet was huge fireman. Don't know his name. Thinking of calling him Edsel maybe Mr. Ed for short or Eddy or something.
    I'd call him Mr. Ed. - Ed. short for educational. ;)
    You're making me want one...and I'm an "old, black, treadle girl"!! :lol:
    I don't know - I thought I wanted him too - he's a piece of work - some are you know :roll:
    We're talking about the machine, right? ;) :lol:
    UH what ARE we talking about anyway?
    What the heck are you guys talking about? Miriam, I was referring to the machine and not the fireman.

    Actually I think I will put a hand crank on her. That way I will have my own machine to use at the next TOGA :D

    Besides, I do have the 1891 VS2 that will be back in her cabinet as soon as I find Janice a mission style cabinet.
    Oh, you are going to love that VS2. YES, Treadle the VS2, and HC for this pretty gal.

I want it bad, but not for that price, now especially.
    There will be another one. Look for the deals on CL or garage sales.

    The fireman was sort of on the big dumb side and kind of young.
    I'm pretty happy with DH no need to flirt - 41 years coming up next week...

    Note with attachments gives info that this machine was bought in 1949 from the Fresno State College Home Ec Dept as a treadle.
