    My Husband bought this sewing machine at a garage sale. I think it might be a No. 5 model but not sure. Can someone tell me more about this company and when this particular machine was made? The serial number is 856873 and it has patents dated from 1902-1910. How much value do these hold? The Treadle stand is the original but is damaged. Thank You!

      I too am researching a Free Sewing Machine. My Aunt has asked me to help her restore her great grandmother's Free Treadle made in Rockford IL. I'm searching for just the drawers for a machine stand like the one posted on craig's list, in the list below.
