Here is a nice clear copy of an original 1889 Singer Treadle Sewing Machine Attachment case Manual.

The pictures and instructions on the functions of these attachments are clear and a delight to explore. Each attachment is a work of art and seeing each piece pictured and explained and knowing it's purpose is a really nice benefit for the owner of one of these fine old and cherished Singer heirlooms. These little oak teasurechests were invented by John M. Griest as were most of the vintage attachments produced by the Singer Manufacturing Company ( Simanco).  Quite a History of Invention one could gather.

 

Among the attachments pictured and explained are as follows: the binder (for binding and making French folds),  the foot hemmer (for hemming and felling), the ruffler (ruffling, puffing and shirring), the wide hemmer (your box should have several sizes), the quilter, tucker and underbraider. There is also a full page illustration of the Singer Puzzlebox laid flat with each of it's attachments numbered and labeled.

The mystery of what pieces belong in the box is finally over!

The booklet is printed on vintage-style parchment paper, the binding stitched and is a lovely addition to the Singer Puzzle Box you own. It greatly enhances the value of your heirloom!

The 'Singer Treadle Sewing Machine Attachment Case' dated and printed on it's top.... 'Patented February19, 1889'..... is a nice example of American quality and ingenuity from an era that has past us long ago.

Please note that the Treadle Machine and Puzzlebox in the pictures are not included in this Auction
