Pfaff Model L Treadle
Finding machines in this condition is difficult no matter what the brand. Finding Pfaff’s in this condition is almost impossible. This one is in extremely fine condition. Click on the photos to enlarge for more detail.
The Red Felts on the Spool Pins are the original ones cut in a Flower Shape.
The endplate has a beautiful etched design.The Woodwork was cleaned but other than taht the finish was original. See the inlaid ruler along the edge.
The paint and goldwork on the treadle frame is all original. All Rob did was polish it with extra cut car polish which cleaned it up and gave it a fine finish. Look Carefully and you can see the pincushion that slides around from underneath. and at the back near the Pfaff name is where Oil Cans sat.
Even the drawer has the has the Pfaff name on the Keyhole Plate Cheers Rob and Lynne

WOW is about all I can say...it takes my breath away!!! Blessed gal!
Jus finished reading all the posts you have about your "insane" blocks. Some great fabrics you are using in them.
Neat sewing machines too.
