This one looks to be a unwashed and unloved gem that needs to be saved. It's too far for me to go, but take a look if your on the East coast. 14 photos here. http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/atq/5610579786.html

Looks salvageable....

This appears to be a Mignonette or Nonpareil, pre-WW I.

Wonder what the table-model is that comes-with.


Someone please come to its rescue...

I wondered about the table model too, Frank -- it's just sort of tagged on to the last line of the ad like it's nothing. Looking closely at the pictures, there's what looks like maybe a portable with a Nazi emblem on the top? If that's the case, it's nothing I'd want, but it would certainly be worth several times the value of the Columbia.

Boy, would not take much to bring this machine back to its former glory.
