Description
This is a treadle sewing machine manufactured by the St John Sewing Machine Company. It is in very good condition; the cabinet has very few scratches or knicks and the moving parts still move. Some of the paint has flaked off of the metal on the actual sewing machine. There are some extra parts with it that I found in the drawers. It is really a beautiful piece! I am curious to find out more about its history and what it's value might be. I have other pictures, close-ups, that could not be uploaded on this site.
