Antique Singer Attachment Set No. 30 in its original oak tri-fold “puzzle box” case (patented Feb 19, 1889). These sets were sold for Singer low-shank sewing machines in the early 20th century and remain highly collectible today.
Contents included (see photos):
• Ruffler
• Tucker (pleater)
• Shirring plate (gathering attachment)
• Multiple binders / braider guides
• Adjustable hemmer
• Full graduated hemmer set (five sizes on mounting bar)
• Quilting foot with guides (slotted seam/quilting rods)
• Several extra presser feet
• Original Singer stiletto tool (awl with ball end) — often missing from these sets
• Partial original Singer instruction sheet marked “No. 30”
Missing / not present:
• Underbraider plate with clips
• Small screwdriver
• Possibly one minor guide or gauge
Completeness: Appears approx. 85–90% complete. Major attachments are present, including the ruffler, tucker, shirring plate, hemmer set, binders, quilting guides, feet, and the hard-to-find stiletto tool.
Condition: Attachments show typical age wear but are in good collectible condition. Oak box is sturdy with dovetail joints and wire hinges, showing light wear and patina appropriate for age.
This is a fine example of an authentic Singer No. 30 Puzzle Box set, ideal for collectors, sewing machine restorers, or display.
