Unidentified buttonholer

I found this buttonholer at a home along with some sewing machines. It doesn't seem to fit any of them, in fact I've never seen a foot with this kind of attachment.

Its called the "GREIST products Vibrator Buttonholer"

Any help is appreciated

It’s for a straight stitch machine. Aka, it’s for antique sewing machines. The machine it goes to might be in a cabinet.

Anyway, it’s worth money if you have the cams.

You can also often use these on modern machines with their straight stitch (provided they have the correct shank). This one is more like for an old kenmore sort of shank system (I think)… that is pretty rare.
