Franklin sewing machine worth anything?

By antique dummy, 28 May, 2010
Description

A Sears Franklin sewing machine with original bobbins and threader. The electrical elements looked a bit too scary to test. I know nothing about the history of the machine. I found it at a thrift store for $13. I thought it might be worth a bit more than that, but I have no idea.

Re: Franklin sewing machine worth anything?

Generally any functioning sewing machine is worth at least $50.00. That said, demand for them is very weak, and huge numbers of them made from the turn of the 19th century through the 1930's still exist in attics, basements and barns all over the country.
