Ok, got some more pics of each item and found the serial # of the sewing machine. Merry Christmas everybody! 
Looks like the buffet needs some repair to the top. It also has some ink stains inside the bottom of the first drawer. Also, it looks like the backing isn't original to the unit. I don't know if there's supposed to be a back or someone may have tacked it on later for looks.
The serial number of the Brunswick sewing machine is: 330552
I'm still checking around on the Web to see if I can find info using the SN.

Wow! Thanks for all the replies and useful information.
I'm going to take my good camera and take several pictures of each item tomorrow. I'll try to find the serial # on the Brunswick also. It still has the manual in the drawer as well as a wooden holder full of needles.
Gonna clean these things up.
The stuff on top of the buffet are leafs for tables I believe. They don't belong to the buffet. I'll take those off and get a good look at the top of the unit.
I'll upload the pics to picasa and put a link here tomorrow if anyone is interested in looking at much better photographs.
Once again, I'd like to thank you all for the information.

I know bigwull...the pics aren't the best. We're in the middle of remodeling the kitchen so I haven't even moved in yet. The light is scarce and it was my son's iPhone 4 taking the pictures...
I had also seen that one on eBay whilst trying to do some research. It seems pretty much the same except for the carvings on the top middle drawer. Mine might be in better shape, but the cabinet is not as fancy as the eBay one.

Hi,
New guy here. I recently purchased a home. It was an original owner home built in 1960. When the owner's children sold the house (their mother in assisted living), they left a couple interesting things there.
One is what I've been told is a "kitchen buffet". It's in really good shape and the owner's kids (now in their 60's) say they remember it from when they were little. I've checked and can't find any tags / plates on the back or inside any of the drawers or doors. I posted a pic of it on Facebook, and was told that it was quite a bit older than the 53 years that the owner had lived there.
The other is a Brunswick treadle sewing machine. I can't find any information on this item either, only the maker's plate on the side.
Any help in rough estimates would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks.
