Honestly their not very rare, If you can get 150 to 200 if it has one of the more ornate treadle bases, and is in good working order without much of the gold leafing gone on it
The sewing machine with the foot pedal, also called a foot treadle, was invented by Elias Howe, Jr. Howe was born in Spencer, Massachusetts in July of 1819. He started out working at a textile factory.
Well, as I have read on other sites, the machine itself is worth about 50.00 or what people are willing to pay. The cabinet, depending on the shape it is in can be as much as 200.00. If in perfect condition - 100 to 200 more!!. Hope this helps - if you decide to sell there are what is is worth sites - but I would be interested should you decide to part with it. lahti@willapabay.org Treadle On is a good resource that I would check out.

Well, honey, let me tell you - those old treadle sewing machines may be charming, but they're slower than a snail on a leisurely stroll. Plus, you better have some strong leg muscles because you'll be pumping that pedal like you're trying to win a race. And don't even get me started on the lack of fancy stitches and features - it's like trying to cook a gourmet meal with only a rusty old spoon.
I have an sew easy 320 Husqvarna sewing machine. I received it as a gift, brand new, in either 1997 or 1998. Because it was a gift I do not know it's original value. Fifteen years of service and still working great!
Hi I have the answer this meens that the heating element is working when light is on but no sound meen that the pump is no longer working

The value that a single treadle sewing machine in one drawer plus domed hood in all good working condition would be at least $50.

The original machine is not - however... construction of a working machine was reconstructed in 2007.
There are many variable to determining the value - more detail is needed, year of manufacture, you can obtain that at the singer site - all you need is the serial number. These machines can be treadle, crank or electric. Condition of paint and decals? Is is a working machine? I have purchased them for as little as $5.00 (working electrical from 1932) and seen them as high as $100.00
I have a Singer machine do not have the year, but it does say machine class 306. It is still in its original case and still in working order but would need a service.
I have a treadle sewing machine from the 1920's and found a serial number on it and 'Singer' made this particular sewing machine. I phoned the sewing machine company and gave them the serial number. Unfortunately, the sewing machine was not worth much (it was in working order.) You have to be very wary when dealing with companies who put out the product and also the next step is going to an antique dealer with a picture of the sewing machine and the date it was made, but again I stress, be wary. You could also put your information onto: www.google.com Do your research and see what your sewing machine is worth. Then go to an antique dealer.
1. Explain the working principle of a milling machine?

The use of worm or worm gears in the working of a machine allows for the exchange of energy for torque or movement.
There are some excellent illustrations that show the inner working of sewing machines on the internet. Do a search for a list. The short answer: You apply force, either by electricity or treadle, and the gears cause the needle to pass down through the fabric into the bobbin below, where it picks up the lower thread, and the feed dogs move the fabric to the next stitch.
