I have a 1917 new home portible sewing machine that has its original motor and foot pedal. It is in very good condition... the foot pedal is shaped like a tiny woman's foot... its adorable. It has all its parts, key to lock cabinet, great decals... very nice machine and I think it works... we need to update the plugs to be sure... does any one know the value of this machine?? It has extra bobbins and wooden needle cases and all attachments

Hi, cunnidj!

The more "bells and whistles" that it has, the better. Unfortunately, what these are worth monetarily is greatly dependent on what someone is willing to pay for them.

Does it have a significant history in your family? Also, would you be able to post an image of the whole machine here, please?

Thanks!
