I have my grandmother's old sewing machine. It has a plate on the back that reads National Sewing Machine Co. Serial number 308833. The front says Eldredge E on it. It is an electric sewing machine in a parlor cabinet.

I am not sure if it is worth cleaning up and keeping or selling or giving it away. That is why I need help in determining that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If someone can tell me how to post pictures I will upload them for you.

Here are some good tips,

How much is my Sewing Machine Worth?

I did find this one on eBay.

But many were a lot less,

The 250 would be a high side of most prices, This one must have really been wanted by someone. Most are bought by re-sellers, at much less. Many are even hard to give away. Just not a high market and many are bought as projects for some other activity.
