Sewing Machine Appraisal

Question: I am writing to you in reguards to a Minnesota model a sewing machine that belonged to my grandmother. I have had it now for 10 years now and I have kept it good shape. It has the original ram-head knobs and the actual leather strap for the wheel and l have the actual needle. I am not sure how much the sewing machine is worth. It means a lot to me because it belonged to my great-grandmother and grandmother. If you could get back with me I appreciate it. -- Maria Flores

Answer:Unfortunately, I am simply not qualified to offer appraisals. My advice would be to check the Yellow pages for licensed appraisers in your area.
Here is a link to an article on the International Sewing Machine Collectors Society Web site that gives information on determining the value of your antique sewing machine.
