61/2" power saw Mod.#207.25530 in excellent condition w/box, WHAT'S IT WORTH?? & make me an offer. Phone: 415-240-3000

I just discovered a compartment underneath the saw which contains 6 different 61/2" blades for various types of work and/or cuts. Plus, the price tags from 1963 are still attached to a few.

There are 3 tools for the saw in a separate compartment, and the kicker to this whole gig, an original Sears, Roebuck and Co.,(1) "HOW TO SELECT AND MAINTAIN CRAFTSMAN CIRCULAR SAW BLADES, Dado Heads and Grooves, Special Purpose Blades"

There are 2 of these booklets, one is dated 12-1-55, the other ?? (2) CRAFTSMAN Handbook of Circular Saw Blades and Power Tool accessories, There are 2 of these Handbooks, one Copyright
1965, the other Copyright 1971-1975(3) Operating Instructions and Parts List for CRAFTSMAN ELECTRIC 61/2" HANDSAW Model Number 207.25530.

 Same saw just found
by: Anonymous

I just found this same saw in the original metal box with the original paperwork inside with many spare blades.

The cord is bad so I will replace it before trying it out with a brand new blade.

5 years later and they are still being found.
