Your Eau Claire Super Deluxe Precision sewing machine model 24 is most likely a clone just like most of the 'for sale' listings being listed for your information on 'value'.

Clones were named anything the companies buying the machines wanted them named - maybe even after their grandmother if they so desired - just like Sears with their 'brand' - Kenmore.

Generally made in Japan and sold to American companies.
Japan usually always used a Singer to make their clones and most of these were good machines.

You can look at how many similar clones are listed for sale online but especially on eBay.
However, you cannot determine value by looking at similar 'for sale' machines as a buyer can ask any price they desire but until it is sold; it has no 'value'.
Only a sold listing can provide any kind of 'value' as this shows what a person was willing to pay for that item.
No 2 machines will be the same so that is another fact:

so condition, shipping, working?, accessories, does it have a case?,
all have to do with value.
Some similar machines listed for sale that you can check to see if yours is similar and in approximately the same condition. if so, place a watch on the listing to see if it sells.

www.ebay.com/.../185329390827

You can always check eBay's sold listings to see if someone has sold a very similar machine and maybe those sold prices can provide a starting point for the value of your machine.

Here are a few similar machines that are on eBay's sold site:

www.ebay.com/.../265406707077?hash=item3dcb78f585...

You can always join one or more of the sewing club forums and ask your questions. They can probably tell you more about your machine, which Singer it was cloned after and perhaps where to find a manual.

They will not provide information about value.

If your machine is in very good working condition, has a case, and can be reasonably shipped, I would say to try listing on Craigslist, Facebook marketplace or similar sites with a starting price of $125-$150 and see how it goes.
If no one shows an interest then you may have to lower your price.

(Here is something to consider; many of the machines listed for sale have been listed for months/years and may never sell.)

You can get rough idea on eBay, but when I searched sold - I don't see any that officially sold.

Only similar kinds: www.ebay.com/.../i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=EauClaire+Precision...

It is not in functional condition, but motor and pedal works, pedal slightly sticks sometimes.

Eau Claire sewing machine was made in Japan. Companies, or in this case, town names were printed on the fronts.
